Go to DDM's page (sponsers on the right of the main page ) and order their DDM Dominator pipe,thats your first thing.

Well my suggestion is if you do not have a engine kill switch yet.....
you will need to get a picco modified kill switch......Plus I would do a engine screen mod
....Those 2 things are very important.....besides getting the tune pipe.....

engine screen mod?

Go to the engine thread and look at "engine covers" you'll see all you need to know there.In my eyes , invaluable!

Ok you can look in my thread..New to 1/5 scale slawhammer's project
Page 5 post 68.......That should give you a good idea

and an aluminum spur carrier. the plastic one will strip out. you'll need the 60mm one for 46-48 tooth spur. and aluminum upper rear arms will keep them from flexing and hitting the spur gear.

a better servo tray is nice but if you add a couple extra support posts the stock ones still work decent

yep Barry has it right with the support posts on the radio tray



you can just make out the alloy support under the brake/throttle servo
