The blues are lighter than the purples by a little bit. They will provide later engagement, and thus more aggressive launch. I ran the blue ones before I got my Mugen shoes, and both seemed similar in performance.

I swear, I give up. YOU ARE RIGHT. Now I screwed up. I bought JP2 for my buggy thinking it would give me better throttle response.
Sorry for my behavior.

JP-2 is a very good pipe when you combine it with some top end engines.
Jay Halsey use this pipe on his car.
Greg degani also use this pipe.
i believe in the straight line you'll be hungry for top speed, right ?
if i can say, you'll get linear power with this pipe

No doubt its the crystals I had a set go bad on me and same type of problem not exactly but close those crystal are very fragile and they have a very thin wire like a fuse in them that breaks easy.

OK,Great choice ,you will really enjoy your new Mayhem ! This is my answer to your question about what to buy next. Rechargeable batteries for transmitter and car, a fail safe,a good set of tools,after run oil ,and locktite(red + blue). Above all read everything you can get your hands on about R C breakin and maintance. Take the best parts from all the information out there in mags and internet and use alot of common sense .Have Fun with it ;it's a great hobby!

hey guys, please .....
mayhem madness, check your internal 3 speed clutch, it might be worn or something.
read your manual. multi speed tranny have it adjustment point according to your need.
for speed number 3, you must lean your engine enough to get power of last shifting.
OR, your one way bearing in the tranny broken (like mine ... last time).
That's why i never want to deal to 2 or 3 speed anymore. they kinda complicated to set and maintain also.
hope this could help
