ORIGINAL: trioval00

I tried to keep my P-80 all the way up into the air inlet, but the tail pipe was too short.

what did you guys do? order a new pipe when you moved your turbines far forward?
I left the stock pipe, with the lower edge of the exhaust slight outside the rear of the fuselage. Then, placed the turbine with the recommended gap between the exhaust and the bellmouth. (I think is like 3/4", but don't remember. I can measure it if you want)
