Need advice for aftermarket pipe

[aldumoul]

so far im interested in the titanium 4 slip on. and i've got $500 to drop on a jet kit and pipe(s). Any suggestions for jets and a pipe? I've heard that it's not really necessary to have a headpipe with the 400ex. well im new to the racing quad world. please bare with me.

Sparks X-4 slip on or HMF!

i got my full yoshi rs3 exhaust , dynojet jet kit, and a k&n filter for 500. i think it made a huge difference. id always go with afull exhaust over just a slip on anyday. this is just my opinion

Yes, I prefer full systems too.....but on a stock 400EX, a full is not worth it, unless you intend on doing other motor mods!

what else do u recommend with those mods listed above. im always wantnig to do more things to my bike. im also on a budget so anything you can tell would be great. i also have a 13t front sprocket. thanks also i got my yoshi full exhaust for 395.oo, that is about the same as some company'e slip on.

After the exhaust and filter, you should do suspension....then really get into the motor!

well. i plan on selling it this summer and purchasing a new sport quad. none in particular yet, but something faster and newer of course. but i need to get a pipe and jets right now to open it up cuz it runs really cold. so im thinking it needs to breathe more.

I have a fmf mid pipe that you need to use the titanium 4 , i have never even used it ill sell it for $55 if your interested. I bought it and the went with sparks exhaust instead.

JMO... If you're going to sell it don't waste you money on aftermarket parts unless money isn't a real issue.


BTW, how are things in Ishpeming? That's where I was born many, many years ago. Still have family there.....

i just bought a YOSHIMURA RS3 FULL COMP SERIES for $370 brand new and shipped from motosport.com then i bought a dyno jet kit for $45, a K&N filter w/ outerwears for $45 from Rocky Mountain ATV.
most places will sell just a slip-on Yoshi for 370, and i got a full for the same amount.

[adavis4]

thats the same place i got my yosh rs3 full exhaust for 359 free shipping. awesome pipe, opend my bike up a lot.

[aldumoul]

i wouldnt mind spending the extra money. im eventually gonna buy something a little bigger, sometime this summer. furthermore it needs a pipe and jets because the jets are crappy. and it will up the value. and who knows if i like the mod, i may hold on to my 400ex

[aldumoul]

so you're from ishpeming... who are your relatives?

Uren on my moms side. I don't know them very well though:ermm: I've only been back there once, in 1983.

There is at least one other member here from Ishpeming. I don't remember what his name is.

Everyone says hmf or sparks...but i have and fmf powercore 4 with powerbomb headers and i LOVE the way it sounds and runs. Definately a diference. Also, kit an aftermarket air filter to help out.
