you're a brave soul, that doesn't look like it will end well I'm afraid.
love the pipe and idea but exhaust = hot air melting plastic, above the can or not .
I totally want extra fuel for my sled, but don't really want the trail tank due to the fit , also would love to use the tunnel like yourself but with the MBRP its straight out and i don't think it would end well.
I guess I'll find out

just installed mine the other day. install was easy, but on a 2010 XTX the predrilled holes in the side if the tunnel do not match with the bracket. i chose to drill the 2 holes in the tunnel, not the bracket. i also opted to not use the bags for now.
Are those made to bolt on to existing holes without drilling? I have a 09 RTX and was looking for some bags that didnt rivet to the tunnel but to cary extra fuel would be great

there are 2 bolts on the top deck that use existing hole. there are 2 bolts in side of the tunnel that your need to drill at least 1 hole for. i had to drill 2 holes in the side of the tunnel on my 10 xtx as the bracket holes didnt line up.
1st ride with they yestrday. fastener that hold the strap on broke in 2mi. weak alum rivet. cans dont leak after 120mi of bumps and BC riding., but i do recomend adding extra bungees to hold the cans in place.

It doesn't even get hot enough to melt the snow off the top.

here's what I did. was hesitant to do it, but a kid out of control in a corner rammed me and dented that erea anyway. holds 1.5 gal and storage under. easily leave it ready to go for long trips, 2 wing nuts. did a few missions with it, no issues.
