hey guys I have a question I just got a used xb from my buddy for 300 with a 5755 servo brand new in box and also a killer bee. I have a question tho. Its got the hpi 5b ss pipe on it and wont fit with body. well I do not want to cut body that much. is there a easy way to bend pipe or header? I remember seeing a pic just cant find at the moment. any tips on how to bend will be awsome. I will post pics really soon

Me personally, I wouldn't mess with bending your pipe. I would replace it with CPI pipe or Jetpro.... up to you.... or you can cut the body and run it? Or run it with out body :D
 
I cant decide what pipe I want I like the jetpro rear mount so far but have never tried the cpi yet. I plan on upgrading to a 27.2 full mod in the near future so a pipe that would work ok with this motor but be great with modded ones would rock!!!
 
Well I tried heating the header to bend and well I snapped it off!!! Haha the Hpi high flow can would be better then a redcat can so I'm going to put that on unfilled I can get a better pipe

Told ya :D But hey... you tried :D
 
ya didnt work like planned but the 5sc high flow can has just about the same power without annoying pinging sound. It might be awhile until it get a pipe since I basically still have 3 other projects. I need to get pics up!
