For farther reference if you go to HPI or Tower Hobbies and type in the part number in the search it will bring up what it is.

RE: HPI N()()B
Are you talking about that circular plastic that goes into the pipe? You can see it kinda here:

If so, thats just for keeping the coupler snug on the pipe end. Some people say that taking out improves performance as it less restricts. I don't think you can get that separately. You need to buy a new pipe. Personally, this would be a good excuse for me to buy a new pipe. Look into a HPI polished pipe, much better performance:

YEAH dude thats it
man what a crappy thing thats how i broke mine to by trying to remove it
should send a message over to HPI and tell them that it sucks and they should replace it with like an aluminum one or something?
but anyways yeah i got it started did the 1st tank and on to the second so 2 more tanks to go after this one
even on the 1st tank i gunned it full throtel down the street and that thing realy flys man (probabley relley bad for it)

Winconsin Nitro, that's extremely bad what you did there. You probably lost about half of your engine life by doing that! I'm not kidding.

Dont sweat it to much, i killed my first s-25 in under a gallon but i learned allot from it. Use whatever it has left to get the hang of tuning and dont worry if it doesnt last because you'll probably want something stronger sooner or later.

Here's one I did a while ago...the font I used doesn't look good at 100x100 though. I made it mainly for sticking on my Savage and showing a friend of mine who has a T-Maxx that he believes is superior to my Savage.
