The 240 is strong, pipe diameter?
What size diameter would be good for a P-240? I sent in my P-240 for the annual check up and it is running strong about 54lbs verified at 260 meters altitude (the 200 does 48lbs on the same conditions) it supposed to do 58 lbs at sea level in the cold.

Bob said its extremely important to have the right size diameter exhaust tube, however, I don't know what that is a good size? A 200 size exhaust tube? or does it need to be larger?
Looking at various aircraft, I know the Ultra Lightning's tube diameter is too small haven't heard back from Tam on what a good size would be.
The shockwave is supposed to have a large tube that handles up to 300N turbines so does anyone know what diameter the shockwave tube is?

I'm not always had the answer specially don't own P-240.
But I had made pipe more than 55 lbs thrust before.
Taking P-200 pipe open up the exit should do the job.

He's answer was: Contact Tam, jetcat tests without a tube.
