Someone has showcased this muffler on a Sundown in Brazil. The Qlink is known as a Sundown STX in Brazil. I have searched with Portuguese translations and even posted on the You Tube site as "flybywifi" where the posting was made with no luck finding where to by that "Storm" exhaust. If you look really close in the video the logo says "Storm".
If any Brazilians out there could shed some light on this it would be much appreciated. I look forward to it.
I do know of an exhaust that has been used on the XF200 successfully. It is the Pro Circuit 496 slip on muffler. It goes for around $400. I will go that route if need be, but that Storm exhaust has to have a better price! I guess we will all have wait and see.
I also know of 2 different people modifying the stock exhaust. One guy tytnpwr just took a long drill bit and stuck it into the exhaust port and drilled into the end of the muffler all the way to the pipe. He claims it made a big difference in the sound and performance. I might have him do it to mine before buying an aftermarket. The second modification is a bit more elaborate and requires more tools than the average joe would have handy. Here is what gdavis2265 did in his own words, "Ditched the airbox and installed a K&N, cut the back end of the pipe off, gutted two baffles and pop riveted the stainless end cap back on.". After asking him to elaborate on this here is what he said "You have to slice the end of the can (angle grinder with a cutoff wheel, my fav tool) - that's the easy part. Then you have to work a screw driver around the edges of the baffle, prying the edge away from the inside of the pipe. Then use a chisel to cut the welds. Lots of work. Might be worth buying a slip on. I just like to make life hard for myself."!
