Hey guys,

I pulled this pipe out of my TamJets F-16 earlier today. Its the older one with built up wing and ailerons. Anyhow, I ran a PST 600R in it for 5 flight, but had a few starts that failed to sustain at higher altitude. I just pulled everything out to prep it for a P-70. Aside from this, all my jets have run with an external turbine so I don't really have a reference point to compare to. Wadiathink, should I replace it?

I had pipe in that condition in my A-4 with few fail start. It still running to now with hundred of flight. But the power of P-60 is less than P-70.
I would said is still good. But since you go for P-70. The diameter need to be bigger. Give me some money is better option for your sake.
