Status: offline 		Thats the midrange pipe. Expect it to fall somewhere between the two. Also bear in mind that one you linked to needs a manifold. Try and get the straight through version. If you really want bottom get the 053 but it would be a good all round pipe.
I'm using model technics fuel at the minute. They do loads of varieties so choose carefully. Otherwise Byrons is good. Never had many problems with it.

I would be using them in about 1 inch deep sand with hard pack dirt underneath, and would they hold up good too?

Thanks for the help

there they are, someone told me that they would probably outlast the buggy in one of my older posts, plus their half the price as proline badlands for all 4.

Thanks
