Dude....I keep forgeting the darn pipes name.....I promise I'll get it for you. I'm not sure what the problem was with the 2.5 pipe but it was definatly cutting down the power by 1/2.

GVFD29 what was your p2 operating temp when you were braking it in and what temp does it run at now. Start to break mine in and the temp's were in the 260 to 300 range is this normal it doesn't say in the instruction manual. Any input will help. Thanks Mike.

Thats why .21 conversion kits consist of a longer chasis! Game Over!...You couldnt run that thing at the track and do well even if you tried! Well maybe if you barely put the spur on and leave it completley loose.

What is the deal with that video? Bon Jovi? Seriously, what were you thinking? Why does the video end at 3 minutes but has another 3 minutes of nothing but "Down in a Blaze of Glory"?

I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that we'd all rather listen to the sound of the engine singing instead of Jon Bon Jovi.

Thanks for the footage, but in the next one leave the music out. I want to hear the engine and the sounds of Matt and Lysle bickering like an old married couple.

I'm seriously you guys.

The Bon Jovi was in remembrance to my front Diff.... The Stock T-maxx pipe would let the t-maxx pull a little bit of wheelie's but not much. Coupedit03.......My truck runs fine....so bite me.

OK Jefx, in your honor the clip is being posted with the original soundtrack. You'll get to hear me busting on Lysle a bit.

No one said your truck didnt run fine. What im saying is that the things needs a longer chasis to be agile enough to actually drive decently and handle somewhat.

Watch the language, I am beyond sick of editing posts about this, you have all had ample time to read the rules. I am ready to start deleting posts, its easier than editing!!!

Allright! Thank you for the new video, It's much, much better!
You did a good job of editing in the music, but I personally like videos that let us listen to the car while it's driving. The sound of a nitro engine is music to my ears. Plus it makes the video much more informative, by letting us know what the engine is doing while it's running.

I am using Matt's Monster GT tires, slightly bigger than the HPI Savage tires I use. The Savages have to much grip....it's super crazy. I am using the stock Gear settings although I have a 23 clutch bell sitting at home and a 68T spur....I'm going to experiment with it. The Pipe name is THS I think, thats all it sez on the box.

funny you mention this, but some tmaxx guys that race around here came to my work, 1 has picco now, other has his sirio. I was asking them the differences between them power wise, and the Picco pulls away from the sirio with out a hesitation. Another guy comes in, he has a big block conversion with a ofna picco .26 outlaw and he also said the picco .21 pulls away from him with no problem.

Guess that ruins your argument --x
