Muffpot on XP?

Kordero · Nov 11, 2009

Hey,

(answering mrquick's call to arms)

If I get a muffpot where is the best place to mount it on my stock XP?

Anyone have any pics they can show?

Thanks< >

I mounted mine on the right side on top of the pipe if you were looking down on the sled with the hood off. Works great in that location and fits well. Some say it does not get hot enough when mounted on the pipe over the insulation shield but I never have a problem with mine getting hot enough.

I would take a pic but my sled is at the dealer getting a new crank.

Yeah, I saw a post that someone cut holes in their heatshield so their muffpot would cook. Seems counter-intuitive to me when everyone is cutting their sleds to pieces for screens to evacuate the hot air. Mounting it as close to the y-pipe as possible sounds logical. So does mounting it on the can.

UPS guy should be here with my M-Pot this afternoon....I honestly hadnt realized that it may not heat my derned hotpockets if mounted in the wrong spot?

I would hate to reach for a tasty ham and cheese hotpocket only to emerge from under me hood with a cold pocket?

Man....Quick is right. We need more discussion up in here!!

i think the frogskins will help the muffput get hotter and engine compart to stay cooler as less snow/steam will be on the pipe, but more heat will escape up and out. Heat up and out, but pipe nice a warm along with the muffy!

Ok, so frogskins & muffpot...

my wife is gonna think I've gone crazy when she sees those on my Christmas list!! Santa should be bringing a mtn fit vent kit to help with the heat UP & out issue.

If your muff pot is not getting hot enough then you are not riding hard enough. I could bake the he!! out of anything in there if I wanted to. A few good pulls and it gets plenty hot enough, but when riding in real deep snow it does tend to cool off from the snow coming in and hitting it. (like when carving down hill)

I did put frogskins on mine though this year to keep the snow out, should work even better now.

Muff Pot

Here's mine it looks like it will work good sitting in my garage.Click on the thumbnail to see mine.

Here is where I installed mine! Stoked on hot pockets, anyone got a guess on cook time? and do I just throw one in in the plastic wrapper in some tin foil?

Look at my recent thread on this topic. Per advice from the snowesters I just mounted one on the top of my MBRP can. Fits great and is level.

Did they change the looks of the HPS can? I bought one used off a member here but mine looks different than that.

I bought mine sept '09 looks the same..

shortstop20 · Nov 13, 2009

Great, it seems like what was sold to me isn't actually an HPS can because mine doesn't look like that.

They don't have a website and I couldn't find any pictures to compare so I'm gonna have to see if the seller is decent enough to give me my money back.

Take a picture and show us before you jump to conclusions.

shortstop20 · Nov 13, 2009

I will, don't worry.

Nope, no logo. It actually has a bolt or bolt head on the top of the large area of the silencer, threaded into the silencer, I'm not sure what the heck that's for but it looks factory. Not sure if that rings a bell for anybody or not. I kind of thought to myself after I put it on and listened to the motor, "How can this be a HPS, it's really quiet".

There is no logo anywhere on the silencer.

It's doesn't look like anything MBRP or SLP offers.

I'll get a picture later today.

EDIT:

By searching Google, I just found a picture of a silencer that looks like mine. The one in this picture is a Straight Line Performance can. I'm almost positive mine looks exactly like this.

I'll double check later.
