4000 contacts.... what do you do?

You can't honestly have an address book that big.

Yes, create a group within Outlook that contains the contacts you want and then choose just that group to sync in iTunes.

You probably made a group when what you need is a new folder under contacts. In the contacts tab in out look right click "Contacts" and select "New Folder" Name it what you want and then drag the contacts you want on your phone to that folder. In iTunes on the info tab, select sync contacts with outlook and selected groups, then select the group you want to sync.
