Hey what does everyone recommend? An RPM pipe or a torque pipe? which one would be better for the overall performance of the car?

it depends on what you want to do with your car, i run the rpm pipes since it give better high end performance. I think the torque pipe is good for low end power and smaller areas to run.

Will a torque pipe help with acceleration from a stop?

yes, at least its supposed to anyways, any decent pipe will give you an all around imprvenment, just some are set up to give you better in different areas.

would the topend be less than stock with the dildo one?

and wouldnt the smaller pipe hurt the flow and slow it down alittle 123?

any pipe would be an improvement over a stock plastic pipe, even though its made for torque the top end would be better too i am sure.

ORIGINAL: ehroof

the rpm pipe if for high end, the ribbed pipe is for more low end. they are both good pipes, just for different things.

So the ribbed one will fit to tsunami with HPI header?

i would think so, i dont have it yet but its for 1/10ths so i would think it would fit, the rpm and traxxas pipe fits so that should fit too.

hey I found the dildo one on another ebay store but its in silver if you'd like that better. Looks less like a dildo in silver. The store is RC Superstore.
