1/8 scale ONE PIECE tuned pipe help
1/8 scale tuned pipe - ONE PIECE:
I hate that rubber cuppler... I am placing a big towerhobbies order and since I am getting a good discount, I rather just throw the pipe on this order. I have a Hyper 7 PBS - I am ordering one for my wife as well. I need a 1 piece tuned pipe for it.
Give me some suggestions with some links.... I would appreciate it....
I looked at the OFNA stuff, because I figured it would be better than something else. But tower does not carry the OFNA 1/8 scale 1 piece pipes. I thought that sucked... Tell me what to order from tower for my Hyper 7 PBS.

Study,
Give this one a look. I've heard some decent things about them.

Hmm tower doesn`t have a big rage of pipes... not much in in-line 1/9th scale for buggies !
Below is the only suitable pipe I could find, thats in-line.

I have heard that the THS pipes are pretty good, the one I linked looks to be a copy of a RB 086 (the best pipe money can buy ! )

i have the ths pipe for my savage and don't like it, it made it real quite even with the outlaw .26 running in it, i went back to my stock pipe.

I was looking for a pipe also for my mbx pro, and have yet to find one, i bought the ofna 086 pipe witht he 3 spring couple and it did not fit my pro at all, no matter how i placed it it sat right against the fuel tank. it was like the header was not long enough. I was told at another forum to try the pirate pipe, its not tower but i know ebay has a ton of them.
Sorry no links or suggestions just giving some info on the pipes i had experience with.

The best pipe for the PBS is either the Ofna 063 or the 086. Problem is, Tower doesn't sell them. If it's gotta be a one piece pipe, the THS is about it from Tower.

Buy your pipe from acehardwarehobbies.com they have the good ones. I picked up my RB pipes there as well as OFNA one-piece.
