Engine settings for new pipe
Just orderd the Jetpro pipe for my buggy, Did anyone have to re-tune for this pipe?
Im looking forward to the added benifits of a tuned pipe over the stock, and from the other post on this pipe I should be very happy

RE: Engine settings for new pipe
all engines differ depending on fuel used, filters etc.
but when fitting a tune pipe you tend to need to adjust top end and idle
but alot of the time you can just bolt it one and leave the settings alone, im not sure if it will be this way with the jetpro, but i know i didnt touch settings when setting up my mates FG pipe
just put it on and adjust when necessary

When I installed my Jetpro pipe on my mt I did not have to retune.I did try to retune but it just made it run worse so I returned to stock settings and all was great. Good choice of pipes if it is not too loud for you you will love it (max performance)

The Jet pro is very good it seams, and so is the Samba, don't think you could go wrong by either one. They are both top performers, not that the Jet pro have been around on Rc gasoline cars for a long time though, but what i heard is that it have similar performance to the Samba. When it comes to racing, most use the Samba pipes.
There are other great tuning pipes out there, fg, lautherbacher etc, so look around and you will find something that you like

Our top 3 mini tunepipe and our drivers, have been claiming victories all over Europe, out performing the Samba.In Belgium last week we placed 1st, 3rd and 10th out of 75 racers and won the race with 3 seconds to spare in the offroad event.
To bad the jetpipe can't be used in the proffessional competitions/races[&:]

I like the look of the top 3 pipe above. I have the new samba marder pipe and the performance increase over stock is awesome. The finish is nice but very easily damaged (scratched) and you can't take it apart to clean it inside.

Yes it do start to sound interesting, that pipe. But i wonder if it really is as good or better then a Samba pipe... but it looks interesting though.

RE: Engine settings for new pipe
Ask around your local hobby stores in Sweden......... Alot of pro racers from different countries are switching to our pipe after they see how well/easy the pipe cleans up, the performance it gives and the over all durability of the top 3 mini......
A couple of our pro curcuit racers have been using the same, Steel top 3 mini tunepipe for 2 1/2 years on the racing curcuit, to the disbelief of many other racers because they buy a pipe almost once a year if not more.... We are getting alot of convertsand happy customers
