I'm slowly putting this thing together for my Hyper 7 Pro. I went with the Jammin P1 part # 10055 pipe because it will deliver bottom to mid-range power. And thats what I need around here; Most of the tracks are small. I also have an Ofna 086 pipe and it seems like it is mid to top-end.

A few more pictures. I always end up having problems with the nut that holds the clutch-bell to the crank. If I tighten it down to much, the bearing fills notchy. If its to loose, then it will unscrew itself under the RPMs. What are you guys using. Small small washers that fit into the hole of the bearing so it would take up the spacing between the two bearing, inside the clutch-bell, so you can tighten the screw down and it not put any tension on the bearings.

The V-SPEC is truly a monster and so easy to tune i have used the stock alloy clutch setup for the whole season and it has worked flawlessly except for one time when one of the clutch springs broke but it was probably my fault.

I have the v-spec on order and i'm going to use a jp1 pipe as well. I've never had a turbo engine, what plugs should I use?
you'll need to use turbo plugs turbo is just a different way of the plug sealing against the head. a regular plug you use a copper washer under the head of the plug but a turbo plug has a built in taper that seals up tight against a corresponding taper in the head button and if you do em up tight you have a right old time trying to get them out again

use OS P3's they are the plug to use. this motor needs a hot plug. you can get packs of 6 at www.rc-mushroom.com they are cheap-$25 if you get them at your LHS they cost around $8 each. so you save big time...
