Great article. Once again you come through with a great link. You need to post that link on the Savage exhaust post.

all this tuned pipe talk..... I'm wondering what would happen if I tried a MCP(1) on my savage. works for the planes, so I'm assuming it would work for a truck.
1:mousse(2) can pipe (search fun fly forum)
2:yes the hair junk kind of mousse

Unstable.....You should try it and give us a report of what you find out. Who knows.....maybe that mousse deserves a place in the RC world!

first I gotta fix my truck (right now it thinks it has 3 wheel steering due me breaking some part I cant think of the name right now..
)What I will do is set up the normal exhast and the MCP (although I was thinking maybe a smaller "can" like a butane lighter refill can would do better) then mark off a known distance on the ground. time the truck with both pipes in
a: a high speed run from line to line.
b: dead start from one line to another.
MCPs on airplane engines give about a 1k-3k increase in RPM throught the whole power range, unlike a tuned pipe MCPs seem to not have a "power band" and they are usually quiet compared to stock nufflers.
again this is airplane engines and dealing with airplane exhast so i dont know if car/truck exhast will respond the same.
well off to find a empty mousse can
