Hatori 698 vs 699 for YS-140FZ
 
This is probably a pretty silly question but I have a CA Eclipse and YS-140FZ and I need a pipe for it, Central Hobbies recommended the ES, and the Hatori 699--- I just found a Hatori 698 in the for sale section on here- What is the difference?

Thanks in advance!

You can also buy a Greve from Germany.
Super Pipe. Half the price of the Hatori, very light, worked superb on my 1.40 and the build quality is just beautfull.
I'd say better than the Hatori!
He's a very famous muffler/pipe producer here in Europe.
the pipe fits the hatori flex header joiner perfectly.
If you're using anu other header, say with a teflon pipe coupler, ask him to supply your pipe with a thicker mouth pipe.
Saves you no end of hardship mating the small Hatori with the gapping Teflon!

The ES pipe is carbon fiber and will weigh between 1 and 2 oz. less than the 698 Hatori. They both will work fine. The 699 is a little longer than the 698 and will weigh a bit more. They all will work fine with the Eclipse.
