I installed a two stage throttle on my '05 REV after too many thumb and wrist cramps from the overly stiff throttle.
It works awesome!
It's mainly an issue when you have a long trail ride to get to and from the play areas where you're riding for an extensive time at cruising speed.
If you're interested in doing this to your sled here are the parts you need and a breif desciption of how to do it...
Go to a DOO Microfiche like this one...
http://www.cyclepartsnation.com/page...6/default.aspx
select "SKI DOO" and "SKI DOO" (again)from the drop down menus.
then select 1999
then select "Formula"
then select Formula Deluxe 500 LC/583/670
then select "02 fuel system"
Look at about the center of that page.

Remove the throttle cable, remove your grip, then you pull your old trigger assy and trigger mount off your handlebars, slide out the kill switch.
I had to cut the plug off of the new thumb heater and cut the wires from your old thumb heater near the plug (Unless you know how to remove the connectors out from inside the old plug and replace them with the ones out of the new plug)
then just splice them color for color.
slide the new assy back on the bars and slide your old kill swich back in.
reinstall your grip, Re-install the throttle cable and your done.
It's really a pretty easy job.
