Rear dominator v2 pipe modification

[pyroM!ke247]

Needed a pipe for my esp g320. The rear dominator is a great pipe but they kinda choke down big bore motors. So I added a 3/32 larger stinger , welded it as a side bleed (I like the sound of sidebleeds better) ,and trimmed and welded the original stinger closed. Can’t wait to try it out tomorrow.

Great job ! Performing mods that offer a solution to a unique problem are very gratifying to the RC enthuisist !?

Fak around! Ive had a lot of pipes over the years. This thing sounds nasty. Breaking in the new engine so no running or revving yet so not sure about how the power delivery will be. But first impressions are impressive to say the least! Sounds pingy but not ear shattering which I love..

Sounds good to me and great job on modifying it yourself.

Sometimes you just gotta think outside the box. Just because certain parts are scarce does not mean other measures can’t happen with existing materials you may have. Every modded part on these rigs there are guys thinking how to better something then selling parts. The market was huge 10 years ago. Not so much these days. But doing your own thing is Very fulfilling.

I'm guessing you mig welded it?

 

[pyroM!ke247]

Brazed it. Zero leaks. Larger stinger,
Acetylene torch, using a flux activated brass rod.. Perfect for the steel they used..

Like I said nice job and I agree it feels great when you find a solution to a problem and it feels even better when you can implement it yourself.

Thanks. My knowledge with two strokes I’ve had, this should be nice paired up with the g320. Time will tell. The larger stinger should let it flow better with good back pressure for the big bore.

Sounds good ?

Got it sanded and re-painted. This is some legit ceramic exhaust paint.

Be careful with the heating instructions, if not done right it will flake right off. I use that paint quite often it's good stuff when done right. Just repainted my wood furnace with it. It gets a little goofy looking on big surfaces, but works well

Did it exactly like it said.
