make sure to clean the stocker out well. If you don't get it all out, it can ruin your engine.

Congrats Its lookin good.
Yes, take off the stinger. Just keep an eye on the wing, it will eventually start to warp from the heat of the exhaust.

Congrats man....

You were patient, persistent, know what you want, and it all works out for you. I'm really happy for you.

BTW what kind of radio do you have. I guess its the stock radio, if it is then you should try and
save up maybe 150 and get a speky DX2.0 The last thing you want is a run away baja crashing or worst taking someone ankel out.

Good luck and have fun..................

With putting the copper tubing on, I imagine you will lose some power.
Same thing happens with the X-Can with long stinger vs short stingers. The long stingers cause the engine to lose .65HP, going down from 3.5HP with the short stingers, to only 2.85HP with the long ones, and there was a loss of power throughout the entire power band.
Try it though. If it doesn't seem like it's losing any power, then go for it.
