Hey i just bought a M4 and it was upgraded( i got it used...) and it sounds higher pitched than my friend stock version... is that because its upgraded with a spring? or could the gears or motor be upgraded too... Any clue by the sound? (It also sounds like it has a higher Rounds per min than his stock... And we used the same batterie

I've noticed the same thing. It really depends on the parts that are used.

Jacko's right. We've had a number of M4 variants in Geist Kompanie, every one with a different upgrade, and they all sounded different. My SR-16 seems to be the whiniest of the bunch.
I did have a motor engagement problem which almost stripped the pinion gear, but even after I corrected it my SR was still the loudest and most high pitched.

I was reading the booklet that came with it... On the bottom of the pistol grip theres a little screw(with a diffrent kindof head... its like the 8sided screws) and it said for "tune" or somthing along thoes lines... any idea witch way to turn that screw? It said dont over tighten but will get the motor quiet... Any one ever do this?!

That screw is the motor adjustment screw. It's the screw that sets how far into the mechbox the motor extends. If it is too far in, the motor won't be able to turn. If it's too far out, the motor won't engage the gear fully, and you'll either get a) gear slippage (and possibly excess wear), or b) no connection at all, in which case the motor will turn as long as you have the trigger depressed, but the gun won't fire (and it'll sound like a drill).
As for which way to turn it, it adjusts just like any other screw: righty-tighty, lefty-loosey. Or in this case, right (clockwise)-in, left (counterclockwise)-out.
