Look for the following lines of code in /solr/conf/schema.xml:

<fieldType name="text" class="solr.TextField" omitNorms="false">
    ...
</fieldType>

and replace them with this:

<fieldType name="text" class="solr.TextField" omitNorms="false">
    <analyzer type="index">
        <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.StandardFilterFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.EdgeNGramFilterFactory" minGramSize="1" maxGramSize="20" side="front" />
    </analyzer>
    <analyzer type="query">
        <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.StandardFilterFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
    </analyzer>
</fieldType>

Remember to restart the solr server, and reindex after these changes

rake sunspot:solr:stop
rake sunspot:solr:start
rake sunspot:reindex

Sunspot gives you wildcard for free* with NGramToeknizer(there are sometimes NGramTokenizer issues for subsets that are too small and other quirks), which means that exclusion is actually the tricky part. If you know the number of digits in the number (say 6), a crude, but effective, way to handle this would be to use without (:field).greater_than(808900) without (:field).less_than(808700) <-- I don't remember whether .greater_than and .less_than are actually => and =< , so if they are just > and < you may want to do 808899 and 808800 instead, but you get the idea.

**Correction There is a solution for this: you can change the NGramFilterFactory in your solr/config/schema.xml to an EdgeNGramFilterFactory (assuming you had an NGramFilterFactory in the first place to get the partial-word seaching). This makes the index only break up words starting at the beginning of strings. After this, restart your server and reindex.
