Status: offline 		since you are not a pipe specialist, my gut instinct says you would have no idea what each adjsutment does i'd suggest spending a fwe dollars more and getting this http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXCPX4&P=ML or there is a better one if you are interested

Status: offline 		well the tuning idea is so you cna adjust where you want power but sometimes you just dont need to touch it since you're not an expert, i highly suggest the rd logics turbo II pipe

Status: offline 		well here is a good article http://www.prestwich.ndirect.co.uk/tunedpipetheory2.htm there is also an issue of RCCA on tuned pipe theory and it tells you all of what everything does, plus, just get a premade pipe, they have been developed for maximum power and since its for an onroad is made for top end power which is where onraod engines are made to run
