Thats the midrange pipe. Expect it to fall somewhere between the two. Also bear in mind that one you linked to needs a manifold. Try and get the straight through version. If you really want bottom get the 053 but it would be a good all round pipe.
I'm using model technics fuel at the minute. They do loads of varieties so choose carefully. Otherwise Byrons is good. Never had many problems with it.

The JP pipes has a thicker alm. and has the stinger support, and had a smooth flow manifold.

I would be using them in about 1 inch deep sand with hard pack dirt underneath, and would they hold up good too?

Thanks for the help

You might want to look in to a set of proline badlands.

there they are, someone told me that they would probably outlast the buggy in one of my older posts, plus their half the price as proline badlands for all 4.

Thanks

RE: What pipe?

RE: What pipe?

RE: What pipe?
 
Would you guys recommend the JP-3 for a OS VZ-B V-Spec .21?

Hi,
I was wondering what the best low-mid pipe would be for the axial .28 spec 1s engine would be? I am looking at the jammin jp-3, would it be a good one?

Thanks for any help

Try this pipe. It is the dynamite 007 high torque pipe/low-mid (hard coated). I am running it on my truggy with a Axial .28

Since you are running a buggy with the Axial .28, you may want to get a top end pipe. The .28 will already have enough low end torque. Try this.

RE: What pipe?
 
alright thanks for the help, i guess i might try a top end pipe, im pretty sure my lhs will have something like that because he has alot of 1/8th buggy stuff there.

JB COMP 05-05-2007 12:37 PM

RE: What pipe?
 
I would get a mid-top end pipe, then if I needed more bottom end I would put a smaller CB on it instead of changing pipes.

jelly bean 05-05-2007 04:20 PM

RE: What pipe?
 
alright thanks. i didnt get a chance to get a pipe today because i didnt have my money from my boat, the deal fell through:( but i am relisting it and im pretty sure that it will sell because i had a few guys interested in it last time too. would a jp2 work just as good as any other mid to top end pipe? just incase i find a good deal on one.

Thanks for the help

RE: What pipe?
 
yeah a jp-2 is a good pipe.
