Please Help!
What is the BEST Engine/Pipe that I can buy for my new HPI Baja SS Kit ? The kit came with the 26cc upgrade, but I want the most powerful/fastest engine and pipe combo available for my beast.
Feel free to express opinions, direct me to reliable aftermarket websites...etc..
Thanks Guys!

RE: Please Help!
I would get the GBE pipe But it is pretty pricey it has the best of both world great low end power and tons of top end power too boot
I have many of the GABE BROWN Products well worth their money....I will be getting their pipe next month[sm=wink_smile.gif]

60% high end and 40% low end...I guess both....I will spend $400 - $500.
Also, will such an upgrade tear the drivetrain apart? Do I need to upgrade anything that might be vulnerable to such power? What kind of gearing would I be looking at?

GBE pipe with Oneill brothers racing motor!
Here is a link to oneillbrothers racing 27.2 zenoah ported motor ($349)
http://www.oneillbrothers.com/rccar/...c_machined.htm
this motor and pipe package would be a killer combo! It would be a little more then you want to spend, but worth every penny

The GBE pipe will use up close to 50% of his intended budget.
I have only seen one person running the GBE pipe other then GBE.
Hes a trusted poster and only says good things about it.
Other then that there is no hard data on the pipe that I have found published.
For the requirements of the thread starter 250.00 for a pipe doesn't leave much left for anything else.

after you upgrade your engine you need to upgrade your rear tires cos youll be wearing them out in no time at all . i started a thread about re treading baja tires
