Default duellist with 2 55ax's

All,

I gave in to an urge,and ordered a duellist(they were on sale),and ordered a couple of 55ax's from tower(also on sale).Been playing with jets only for a while,but I wanted a screaming twin pattern ship,for that sweet sound.Almost called Dub for a pair of 60lx's,but less than 300 vs 1k for motors stopped me.

Point is,I read the threads in the engine section,and found a lot of good info,but I'd like to know your opinions on max speed set up.I'm leaning against a pipe setup,towards an ultrathrust,for simplicity.I really don't have a lot of time to be trying to tune 2 engines with pipe/prop combos.Bob says these motors should be propped for the 14k range,but the results I've read are varied.What prop do you think I should run,using either stock muffler/no baffle,or an ultrathrust.Planning on 20% nitro.I want her to be fast as possible,but I still need to be hooking up on the vertical stuff.Thanks in advance,

Erik
