I am going to put a highly modified OS TZ.18 in it use the 220mm conversion kit tires and really smoke my buds roadracing because the center of gravity and balance of the car will be alot better than if I put a .21 in it. Here is a picture

Nitrohead, youre instaling a highly modded tz, who modded it? You, AB, or EB?

I have the same engine and tried the same exhaust pipe, and it was no good, you loose too much at the top end. So if you havent tried it, you may be unsatisfied

I am concerned about the pipe too I was told by an expert after I purchased the pipe that carbon fiber does not resonate like steel and alum and might cost me so hp if it does not preform I will get another pipe. Thanks

Yes its the hole, you loose too much presure for top end. but at take off its pretty good, but just the take off.At the top end you just loose alot.

only if the hole was smaller it would be great

Thanks for the info when I am testing it and if it appears to be losing power on the topend I will just put a smaller piece of brass tubing inside the stinger.

I have the EB Mods OS 18 in my RRR with a 220mm conversion. The engine does not rev like the .12s but has double the torque. The only problem you have is gearing. You need to geear it up as high as possible. You can get a 19t first gear and a 24t 2nd if you look hard enough and thats plenty for the car.

I run mine as a street racer and it flys

Cheers
