Syphon, did you cut your dominator pipe yet? If so, what coupler are you using and has it melted yet?

 

[Syphon]

No I haven't cut it yet cause I got the CPI pipe but I still have it in the parts bin if I need to btw Fedex says the cage will be here tomorrow already bought the P clips to make some .025 aluminum panels similar to the ones I made for this.

Can't afford that sucker! Do you think I will be alright cutting the pipe and using a coupler? I heard someone mention that it pops the coupler off. I guess the cut ends need to be flanged a bit.

 

[Syphon]

Actually I think it can be pretty easily done if you use the original as the header and some heater hose for a coupler but I think that the bracket is too weak to handle any rough treatment that is why I sprung for the pipe.

Got the cage installed today and clearanced it for the pipe, I already knew that I was going to have to do this and I have an idea for a brace to take the place of the material that I removed.

This thing is ridiculous

ive never owned a cpi but this definatly sounds better than the jetpros,sambas,doms etc imo. very nice burble

 

[Syphon]

I finally got to hear the pipe at full song in second gear yesterday and all I can say is it was amazing and scary to realize my brakes weren't adjusted tight enough all fixed but compared to the stock 30.5 cc and rear dom clone pipe it feels like it pulls the HP all the way through the RPM's. I can't imagine what it will be like when it comes time for it to be a OBR Prostock.

 

[Syphon]

A little update, after bashing it for a few tanks I took it over the MX jumps and after some "Dukes of Hazzard" style driving I was able to able to find some weak points and fix them approprietly.

Broke KM shock cap from a crash


I decided that the shock cap wasn't the problem it was the suspension over extending and pulling it out of the brace so I got new HPI shock caps and some Killer RC limiting cables.

I also broke one of the front KM plastic hubs

Going to replace both front hubs with HPI parts and also rebuild the rear shocks as they aren't as smooth as I would like.



Got the Racers edge SS screw kit aswell



And did the laundry


Will post pics when I get them installed.
