Ok I am very into my new hobby of R/C cars. As of now I own a nitro rustler that I am very happy with, pretty soon I'm going to want to buy some hop-ups. Me being new to this hobby I have no idea what to buy. First off I would assume a better tuned pipe, what brand what company? should i re-inforce the plastic with alluminum or carbon fiber if so what brand, what company? all help is greatly appreciated,




Thanks

np, RPM is plastic a-arms, when you buy products from them, you break it, you just send it back and you get a free pair, rdracing is aluminum, and about the graphite, its mostly for racing, it light weight and its strong, but for bashing around aluminum willl do, here are the websites if you want to check it out

theres really no need for a new cooling head unless you want looks and your truck is over heating, i found this pipe for the tmaxx, but it will fit on your rusty http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXSP47&P=7

That pipe on ebay will not have any performance it even looks like crap, dont waste your money on it, my opinion is to get the THS pipe.
