Default Pipes?

I am going to be getting a Cen CT4 S soon and was wondering if I should buy a better pipe for it or keep the stock one on it.

If I should get a new one, could you point me in a direction of good pipes?

So you're going to buy a cheap truck and then spend money hopping it up?
Why not get a good truck out of the box?

I now you Cen lovers are going to hammer me[sm=punching.gif]

Oops! Nothing worse than swallowing your foot in front of everybody. LOL!! Anyway, the stock pipe doesn't appear to be restricting the exhaust as the car is able to reach speeds of 50 miles an hour (while the CT4S is 70 plus mph). You may look into a Paris or Associated or something similar but I wouldn't say that it's a component the needs replacing.

Ok, thanks for the info dagass.

I guess that 70+ means that the pipe is good enough.

70 mph is plenty fast. I'd say you're definitely covered on the pipe!

At 80 mph, you're gonna need a runway!
