WANTED!! Pipe for new motor...

[FreeRideFrosty]

I am looking for a mid to high range pipe (most likely) as I have heard that the OS .21 VZ-B has a lot of low end power. This will be in my revo so I will have the header from the .21 conversion. If the pipe will fit out back that would be awesome. If not I will need the pipe and header and I will need to rig it up out the side like Gabe does... Let me know what you have and how much you would like for it. I can do partial trades with anything from my other thread as well...


Thanks,
Dan

I have a JP-1 . I know its a low end pipe and not realy what your looking for but id sell it for like 25 bucks. Its in good shape finish is real dull though. Just thought if throw it out there..

[Sh1nn3r]

Thats a real good deal you should take that dan

[rocco79]

Dan i also have a brand new TTR pipe without a header. I was told buy a very reputable source that they are VERY Tough and very strong performers. I think ita a mid- to high pipe. Id take 25 for it. Ill find out excatley what it is and post a link later tonight. I gotta go to the Firehouse now

[Obsessive R/C]

I have a RB 9863 I belive its a mid pipe, it would mount to the side like Gabes. $25

Dan, I might be selling my buggy part by part, lmk if you want anything offa it. Also, I have some alu clutch shoes for 1/8 motors you could have for cheap.

[FreeRideFrosty]

All of the $25 pipes are right in my price range. The only stipulation is that if it will mount in the rear I won't need a header but if it needs to mount out the side I will need a header...

That said I know virtually nothing about pipes. As honestly as impartially as you guys can be what is the best bet to be matched with the OS .21 VZ-B??? And how soon can I get all of them... very interested...

[Michowski]

rocco il take it for sure if dan doesnt

I got a 2 for 1 with headers



The top end pipe needs a little weld/braze



The clean one is off the ST and was only used for break in and 1 race. The other is off my buggy and has some good long runs on it. $25 for both.

[FreeRideFrosty]

Well I can braze really well so that is a definite possibility. (I have a mountain bike fram that I brazed myself that is still rock solid) The JP-1 is enticing as is the RB pipe... I know nothing about the TTR one. I am still very unsure and am waiting for some guidance fro ma higher power. LoL... This is a harder decision than I thought... I epected one or two to get posted...

[MX_KEVIN]

With a JP-1, you shouldnt have to worry about the stinger bending, but I dont know if they've been tested with hitting concrete from 20ft flips....You let us know :wavey:

[FreeRideFrosty]

I hate you. LoL Like I said if I had waited to se the affects of the tune before hitting it I wouldn't have had a problem as I landed a couple picture perfect ones earlier... I think this motor will have plenty of power. LoL


With the JP-1 can I run the pipe in back or do I need to run a header out the side buggy/gabe style??

[MX_KEVIN]

Im pretty sure if your running a BB it needs to come down the side like Tex's. And I think youll need a header like in my first pic to clear the arms. Im not 100% tho so still ask around.

[MX_KEVIN]

Sorry...TOP Pipe

[FreeRideFrosty]

Hmmm... because in the traxxas BB conversion kit they give you a new header that looks like it moves the whole pipe to the motor side of the truck so that it will fit back there... I will need to see I guess... I will be getting the motor and conversion tomorrow I believe so I can check clearance on everything then....

TTR one is a good pipe i just started running the short one on my vspec and it really smoothed it out the best pipe on every OS is a 2050 a little more $$$ but u will never dent or brake it and it will give u the best power out of that motor. I havent had much experience with the other TTR pipe the long, which will give u more low end, but they are really durable from what i have seen, I would stay away from and 086 pipe it kills the fuel mileage

[FreeRideFrosty]

Ok... so it is between the JP-1, the TTR, and the 2 for 1 deal... does anyone have a link to the TTR pipe??

long

http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info...ts_id/4638
short

i dunno which one rocco has

[Obsessive R/C]

The only pipes that will fit in the rear are the Trinity and the RB TM/RV...they both are short pipes that will handle the flow of a .21 + engine. All of the pipe posted are 1/8th scale buggy pipes and will be too long to mount in back.

[Ponch]

Dan....Why not ebay the cf pipe, and go get a direct bolt on trinity pipe like I have? j/w.

[rocco79]

Dan the ttr pipe comes w/out a header so it sounds like that is what you want. I bought it from Joe torres on sunday, i decided i dont need it . Joe runs these pipes as does sonny O. Through all the club races they both attend joe assured me that they have YET to dent one of these pipes. . . .

Ill go out to my car and get it... Ill post a link to the pic in a minute

Read the info on the pipe, sounds like what you want... (and im cheaper!) LOL~!

[Tex]

:p:

I sold him a like new pipe/header/gaskets/coupler for $10. Granted it's a RTR ofna pipe but it's all ready to go for a side mount application. I ran this pipe on my VZB and it had mad power believe it or not.



Hey Rocco, with the TTR pipe he would need a header correct?

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

yes he would

Dan....Why not ebay the cf pipe, and go get a direct bolt on trinity pipe like I have? j/w.

Cuz he wants cash fast...so I am buying it! Trinity pipe is nice, too.
