Nitro Exhaust
 
you know how the exhuast of our nitro cars are let out on the sides of the cars. i was wondering if there was a way to make it leave out the back like an actual car? could i like put a rubber tube and use that as an exhaust pipe? or would the tube melt? i was just wondering... to add a lvl of cool to my car hah

high temp silicon tubing will work, but it will probably cost you some power.

look for the exhaust that goes on the traxxas nitro stampede, the manifold only works with a side exhaust engine, any of these "could" work, look on your car to see if one of these could fit.

all these will fit on a .11, .12, .15

I have tired to make a rear exhaust for one of my cars before, but it didnt work and totally mucked up the engine so i had to take it off and the engine worked fine again.
