  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

X-Lite fmf q4 silencer

Yes it does. But it doesnt use the springs to hold the midpipe to the header, it doesnt use anything so I guess its ok. They make you put a bead of hi-temp silicone between the header and muffler, no big deal unless you dont have any handy. The quality of the stock muffler(Leo Vince) is better than the FMF, but I needed the sparky and 96db for racing.
 
Mike, weight diff? ya got numbers? FMF lists the Q4 as 5.6 lbs. I still have not weighed my OEM Leo muffler but it is heavy for sure.
I'm planning on going powercore hex with S/A and add dB plug if needed, also want the whole system but seems they have not finalized it yet.
 
I believe mine has the Arrow on it,the quailty of it is great, but is long and heavy. I was thinking if the fmf Q4 was missing the bolt tabs i would get the powerbomb head pipe instead,thanks for the reply... I assume no remapping was needed as you said the bike runs great with the fmf. I would get the powercore but the one i seen was missing the tabs for the heat shield.

I should add that mine is on a 13 txc310. I will get weights on the OEM system soon. It runs great with the FMF.

Does it run better than with the Q4 than with the LeoVince X3 Titanium (the one they sell in the Husky parts catalogue)? Or do you mean the stock one (which is also made by LeoVince?

On my bike (TE 2013) the dealer made the pu this week and he said he put on "a new factory mapping for the LeoVince X3" (the already mentioned one). I got an old exhaust from last season and it has a lot of dents. Someone is working on it right now and he said it should be ok because it's made of titanium, let's see. Gonna pick up the bike tomorrow and hopefully will be able to do a first run this weekend.

Was thinking of buying a FMF Q4 as well (without dents...)
 
I never ran it with the stocker. I didnt have to remap for the Q4. It really, really runs good. It even starts in gear. It doesnt need the header, no need to spend the money.
 
I have an FMF system on my '11 TXC. The powerbomb header has the lugs for the stock heatshield, but the Q4 does not have the lugs for the mid-pipe heatshield. Both pieces retain the stock exhaust spring.
Hope this helps......
 
Seems they make them both ways,maybe the newer version has the tabs...? I called FMF, the guy i talked to could not confirm if they had the heat shield tabs or not...? So i don't know :confused:
