See if you can get an rb pipe. They are tbe best ones that i've ever used. The only thing that might make me change is if the Vantage Carbon Fiber Pipe is better.

Check out the Resonator! It improves low end and top end (weird eh). And there are other models, this pipe will be out shortly and will be for the jato and revo.

It has to do with what you are looking for torque, top end and so on.
This article should help out telling you the differences.

All so carbon fiber is one of the worst material for a pipe, as you need heat.

The CVEC pipe is great, has great low end - mid range performance. Can't go wrong with that.

We are working on top end pipe starting after the IHobbyExpo in LA next month.

Thanks for chosing a CVEC pipe.
