Default tuned pipe for firestorm G3.0 engine

I was wondering if anyone knew if any tuned pipes fit onto the new HPI firestorm G3.o engine..Im new in the game, so not sure what will fit what. I know it is a new truck out, and there are not to many hop-ups for it yet. But maybe an older pipe.?

Crook, the Firestorm already comes with an Aluminium Tuned Pipe (#86909).

Why don't you hold off for a bit on buying a new pipe. Burn that engine out and upgrade to the Outlaw 18ss motor then add your tuned pipe. You said yourself, you are new to the hobby, why not start trying new tires and new shocks and shock oils and different shock configurations until you like how it handles first, then start messing with the engine and pipes or even get a better quality radio than the stock AM that came with it.

There are a whole lot better engines then the HPI 18SS like the OS 18 CV-R and are cheaper. I am a HPI man but the HPI 18SS is not all that great! Here is a good radio for the money and you will never have to worry about a frequency conflict ever again. $144.95 and you just cannot beat 2.4GHz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
