To get more power you need to get more air into the motor (gas too but thats the easy part) with more air coming in you need to be able to get the air back out with less restrictive muffler.... Most ppl go with new high flow air filter, rejetting and a pipe to gain that little extra power.

I've done all that on my old brute force but I have to keep the 420 on the quiet side being I work on a hunting lease . So was wondering if a
Power commander would give me more but still not have to be loud with new pipe .

It would help a little because the factory usually sends them out a little rich. IMO
