is it a tight track or wide open!!!
in my experience , when racing , bottom end is your friend!! you will need good bottom end punch coming out of turns and hitting doubles that are 5-6 feet coming out of a turn.
i ended up with a jp-3 becau8se its a mix of bottom end and top end!! it works for me

I am happy with the JP3 too...good all around pipe. My track is mostly short turns and really no long straights to get good top end. I may switch back to my THS racing pipe as that has great punch in the low end for my track plus others at the track are always wondering what I am running cause the sound is sweet.

Sounds like an 086 pipe you're looking for. Brands like Novarossi and RB make awesome versions of it. A more economical pipe would be the JP-2.

Might be better yet if we knew what engine you're running. I know that a top end pipe on a Mach 427 will drown out the bottom end very badly. I'm sure you're running a .21 but which one?

If u have already ordered your pipe, you can still get some bottom end power by using harder springs on your clutch setup. I have an RB S7 engine which is more of a high end power engine but I do manage to get very good acceleration by using 1.1mm springs and a 13-t clutch bell. So don't worry if u already ordered the 'wrong' pipe. Have your clutch set-up right and u can have all the bottom end power that u you'll need.
