Default Hey! Quick question about a pipe!

Hey,
I have a Losi 8ight buggy. The pipe on it of course comes out the side. I was wondering if it would mess anything up by attaching a clear tube, much like a fuel line tube, and running it to the back of the buggy? I don't know if that would mess up the pressure of the pipe or not. If I am unable to do that, does anyone know if you can buy a pipe for the 8ight that has it come out the back and not the side?
Thanks so much!
Corey

It would indeed mess up the performance characteristics of the pipe. The longer the header or interconecting pipe the more bottom end power and less top end power the pipe will have. However in this case of a long interconecting pipe god only knows what it would perform like. I'm sure it would run, but it would be little use of a 'tuned' pipe
