Official Thunder Tiger ST-1 Thread
I ran a Mugen 1005 last night in my 21bf. bottom end power felt great, mid it seemed to sorta fall a little and top felt awesome. Motor hits gallon mark last night and I think it finally woke-up. Not sure if it was the cool weather or what, but I was averaging temps of 235-245 and greating some awesome gas mileage on it.

Thanks rocco, like I said before. Only driving a revo before so all this stuff is new to me with the pipes and motors. I was alittle shocked to see 9 reviews all good about that nova motor. And they say that it is their 'sport' motor.
I am thinking either the nova or the werks. Just have to figure out a pipe that will work good with what I have been told here.

A-main has then for $120 special order

Also,we talked about the JP-1&2. Any word on the Jp-3? they say it is to be a mix of both the 1&2 pipes.

Try the JP-3 and see how you like it, like you said it's supposed to give good bottom and good top at the same time.

Just spending money!!! Sad lol Well I was wondering because it doesnt seem that many people really care for the JP series of pipes. Like they have not lived up to what they thought.

I like the jp-2 I'm running right now on my WS7II. Enough bottom to clear what I want, and enough top end to keep up with any buggy on the straights.

Jp-1 Good pipe for all around IMO... keep bottom end sharp and doesnt seem to hamper top end ... Also very durable

Jp-2 Not impressed with this version at all... Seems that any advantage this pipe may have on the top end cant seem to be expoited by my 3 port.. Low end was ok, just didnt feel nearly as lineal as other pipes....

Nova 9853 Another exellent all around pipe IMO... Very strong bottom end power no limit on high end rpm ethier... Seemed to rev just as high as the JP2 only with a much more lineal feel.

Mugen 1005 By far my favorite pipe. Low,Mid and High all feel great. Fuel economy seems very good also. Only down side is pipe feels alittle thin so be careful. If you can find one i would get it...


These are my opinions only ...

well as I said before. A_main has that 1005 as a special order pipe(you have to call to see if they have it or can get it before you place your order). I have not really looked at the TTR pipes yet. As of right now. I have a Werks Racing 086 One Piece Tuned Pipe w/Medium Conical Manifold in the shopping cart. I will keep in mind and look at those other pipes. Maybe the 1005 also.

the reason its special order is because they dont make them anymore. I dont know if they can find one but good luck.

Casketman, how is that Werks pipe ? I was looking to get the 86 pipe. My RB 9886 has seen better days..... I'd pick up the NR 9886, but it doesnt come with the header and for almost the same price, the werks looks to be the better deal.

I have yet to try any out. Just trying to get a better understanding before I go and drop $90+ just to find out it is a way wrong pipe.
