928GT,
I looked over at Highlifter for the HMF Swamp Series, but at $399.00 it's a little hard to swallow. I can appreciate the technology used and not needing to rebuild, but is it really worth it if I'm not playing submarine?
I've been looking at the Performance Kit over at ATV Outfitters and for $350.00 I can get a HMF QS1 Eco System, K&N Filter, and a jet kit. I DO want to add a little "sound", I just don't want to piss off the wife and I wanted to get some opinions before I wear out my keyboard.

Most comments I have seen about the QS1 is that it is still pretty loud, again definition of loud varies person to person.
The fact that the packing inside the QS! will wear out means it will get louder and louder as time goes on. The Swamp should stay the same for the life of your ATV AND the Swamp will make a lot more power than the QS1
You can get the Swamp Series from Leesons Motors on Ebay or their website
www.leesonsmotors.com for $379 with free shipping. They also run occasional specials on Ebay for $362 and free shipping.
If you want to save money (don't we all) here is what you can do and be close to the $350 deal you mentioned and have a better overall system.
Swamp series $379.
Main Jet is included free with Swamp Series
UNI Filter (better than K&N IMHO) $20 or less.
Cut your slide spring in half - Free (basically same effect as the spring in the DJ Kit)
So for $399 you can get the Swamp and rejet/tune your carb AND have a better sound (that stays that way) AND actually make MORE POWER than the $350 kit you mention.
