Just wondering what exhaust system with spark arrestor you guys have found make the biggest difference on the 400ex, the best I have found is the Big Gun exhaust system, which claims to add 7-8 hp to entire rev range. I plan to add jet kit and filter as well, I would also like to keep it a little quite. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks

We have the FMF Mega-max on our 400EX, It made more power, isn't to loud, came with a spark arrester, and already broke. The weld where the pipe attaches to the silencer, came apart. Easy to fix but annoying, none the less. I have seen many 400's with the Big Gun system, a couple of shops use them on their race bikes, they swear by the power, but they are louder than any pipe I've heard on a 4 stroke. Go to a local track, find a Yamaha YZ400 with one on it, you'll see.

see <a href="http://www.geocities.com/~gtthunder">GT Thunder</a>. They did an exhaust shootout not too long ago and are posting the dyno results over the next 2 weeks in their "News" section....

My buddy has the Big Gun exhaust. It is very loud!! He loves it! It definately gives it more low end than stock. I just bought the DMC Dual system for mine but I don't have it on yet.

The Big Gun is one of the loudest exhausts I've heard. If your looking for quiet than I'll sell u my hardly used stock pipe.
