Default DLE 20 With an ES Composites Tuned Pipe

My next project is an [link=http://www.valleyviewrc.com/Yak%2054%20Pro%20SD%20Model.htm]SD Models Yak Pro from VVRC[/link] with a DLE 20, ES Composites carbon fiber tuned pipe with a Macs 2986 header. I've got and have had several glow engines with tuned pipes but this is my first time doing this to a gas engine. I'd like to turn a Vess 18x6 the same/more RPM on a pipe as the DLE 20 will turn a Vess 17x6 on the stock muffler. Do you think that is possible? Any tuning tricks you can recommend would be appreciated.

Secondly, I'm hoping for a huge noise reduction as well. My DLE 20 on a Jtec Pitts is really close to being too loud to fly at our field.
