Better performance? X-can or Redcat Tuned Pipe

[Boriqua935]

Got the mt pro. Stock tuned pipe cracked I assume from heAt which is pretty sad. Redcat is sending me a replacement. Been running and old x-can I had on my 5b. Gotta say I like it. Which is gonna give better performance? Is redcat pipe any good? I had some sputtering with redcat pipe. That's gone with x-cAn

xcan would be better than the stock pipe, but still not the best for performance

What pipe do you suggest for best performance?

I cant tell you what is best but i run this one http://www.cpiracing.com/store/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=10 and I love it. But i do not have anything to compare it to cause the guy i run with runs the same pipe as well.

That looks good. And I like the straight back design, should not burn up plastic body. I think that's gonna be on my Xmas list. Did you notice performance gain over stock? Any other suggestions out there?

I'm that guy...yes, a HUGE performance boost


You have to trim the rear of the body just a little (I think all pipes require some MT body mod)


...check out Video section, I have some tuning videos and one I'm posting now with Trickle and me.

Also i might mention i burned a whole in my body where the pipe is the highest. The hole is about the size of a silver dollar but i have since ran the body with the hole and nothing else seems to be melting.

ill used heat shield tape. I had to cut away some of my body that melted with redcat pipe.

i run jetpro pipes, i have tried the cpi one it's not bad but it didn't run like my jetpro and if you run the body lower than stock you have to cut the whole bed side off or it will melt it off.lol

Do u have a link for the jetpro?

Here the link to JetPro side mount pipe. https://jetpro.com/products/15_Scale_RC/26/


The rear pipe is not on the site yet.


I have a side mount pipe on my TT and love it.
