picked up a vantage carbon fiber pipe today and was wondering if anybody runs this pipe? im gonna lighten up my s3 as much as possible so i thought this would be a good start but somebody told me that carbon pipes dont create HP. because they dont get hot enough. i dont belive him i think it dosent matter what material its made of wether aluminum steel or carbon its whats inside that matters how its shaped and so forth so i bought it and will try it. oh i also orderd a pair of carbon fiber shock towers to. so whats youre guys thought?

From page 7 MBX5 owners thread...as for carbon shock towers, IMO they wont hold up as well as King Headz or Racers Edge towers.

ya mine did crack but , they said (vantage) it was a faulty pipe and they havent had any sent back because of a crack. it does get hot while running but it cools down faster. they have the best customer service ive seen. he said send it in and we will send you a new one out USPS today. and he is going to give me the short header that i didnt have for free. i run the long one now and love it. it has a bigger sweep than the JP pipes. so keep us posted on how it works out.

i have a s3 too and can you lighten up to make difference with out
causing easy breakage

all i can do is post how it works when i get the new one...
