I have the Samba pipe currently fitted to my MCD Proline, saw the Jetpro pipe & it got me thinking.

King Cobra do a decent samba pipe for the rally car. Not quite as bling as the jetpro, but it gets the job done.

I just took a few pictures with the jetpro installed. When standing still the pipe fits but it will hit the rear left tyre when you drive it and make right hand turns or excellerate to fast.
If the shoks go down it will hit the tyre .

You can solve that problem when you install the long rear drive shafts from the race runner, that way the wheel is about a 10mm away from the pipe and that is enough.
The problem is that your rear wheels will come out of the bodyshell for about 10mm.

Don't know if o'neill brothers are willing to make one for the rally car cause the pipe really rips the stones out of the ground. It wouldn't be that hard to make cause the pipe only needs a litle twist at the exhaust heater and at the silencer. There is enough room between the pipe and the rear differential housing.

When taking the longer drive shafts one will also have to take the 510 mm wheelbase instead of the 535mm, the pipe wiil be to short for the 535mm.

I will post the pics later when i know how to do it...

I couldn't have that pipe on my car! Where I race I regularly get dodgy FG drivers rear ending me as its the only way they can get past!! That pipe would get beaten to a pulp.

I have the Samba fitted to my Proline, its a great pipe.

Do you ever have problems with the Samba manifold coupling spring breaking, I have gone through 3 in as many months.

MCD Recommends the Samba 4 F1 Pipe for the Rally cars. The Samba 4 F1 Pipe should give more power than the Buggy pipes.
Ok, it is also 30% more price than the Buggy pipes...



I don't know if the new Samba F1 "G" pipe will fit

That Samba F1 pipe is no longer available, the correct pipe for MCD Rally cars is the one I have.

Sorry.

The one I was linking to is the Touring Car version of the Samba 4, not the F1 version.

I have had problems with the spring too. I gave up and used a cable tie! I thought it was just me, but it must be a manufacturing issue.
