hpi or traxxas header, they are pretty much the same. Allen on the forums here has that pipe and is happy with it, not to mention you cant go wrong with the price.

You want to rid wheelies with the SV? take out the front Drive shaft going from the trans to the front diff. Get a set of 2.2 rims and some low profile jato tires and you can ride wheelies all day long with the SV.

I realy dont want to start an arguement but the engine could be overcome it has lots of power but you would need to change the entire setup of the car including gearing and clutching to get it into the power of the line!

nobody is looking for an argument, i just want to see a video of a stock sv doing a wheelie without the driveshaft in. didnt think that was argumentative. The only volcano i have seen wheelie is redcat dannys with a hyper .21 in it. The .18 that comes with the redcats doesnt have the punch to lift the front end off the ground, not saying its a bad engine, just not a powerhouse.

Got plenty of punch, it's like building a wheely car out of a Volkwagon. Take the weight off the front end and all the power to the rear and bam you have a wheely car, it's not rocket science only simple physics.
