RE: Shopping List
in that case, don't use the rear exhaust pipe. you could damage it easily. i'd suggest using the HPI polished alum. pipe.
with those LST shocks you'll be able handle those jumps with ease. it'll be hard to resist temptation to push your truck. i sad the same thing you did "i'll be doing some light bashing..." yeah right. once you see the truck handle a nasty spill like it was a walk in the park you'll change your mind.

RE: Shopping List
For a pipe look into the tsais M25, its made specifically for the savage and wil go with any .28 to .32 engine. They also have them in hard ano i think unless thats the THS pipe, another goos one to look at.

I just checked, they do sell it in hard ano..
What's it like compared to the HPI polished pipe??
It's only £5 more than the HPI, also will it be a lot better than the dual pipe I had up earlier??

RE: Shopping List
Performance wise it should be the same as the dual and it should be better than the HPI polished because its a "one piece" type pipe. I wanted to get one just to get it anodized with the same design as my truck, silver flames on a black background.

RE: Shopping List
By the way has anyone ever bought from Tsais??
They're customer service is amazing..
They have a live chat thing, and within 1 minute I was talking to 1 of the employee's..
And as well as that, it says "Monday - Friday - 10:00am - 5:30pm" or something like that, I asked another question at about 6:15pm and they still answered..
They seem amazing to deal with, I'm deffinetely getting the Tsais pipe now..

A first grade teacher collected well-known proverbs. She gave each kid in the class the first half of the proverb, and asked them to fill in the rest. Here's what the kids came up with:
Better to be safe than... punch a 5th grader.
Strike while the... bug is close.
It's always darkest before... daylight savings time.
Never underestimate the power of... termites.
You can lead a horse to water but... how?
Don't bite the hand that... looks dirty.
No news is... impossible.
A miss is as good as a... Mr.
You can't teach an old dog... math.
If you lie down with dogs, you... will stink in the morning.
Love all, trust... me.
The pen is mightier than... the pigs.
An idle mind is... the best way to relax.
Where there is smoke, there's... pollution.
Happy is the bride who... gets all the presents.
A penny saved is... not much.
Two is company, three's... The Musketeers.
None are so blind as... Helen Keller.
Children should be seen and not... spanked or grounded.
If at first you don't succeed... get new batteries.
You get out of something what you... see pictured on the box.
When the blind lead the blind... get out of the way.
There is no fool like... Aunt Edie.
Laugh and the whole world laughs with you. Cry and... you have to blow your nose.
