Pipe, filter, servos is what I heard. Can't confirm any of this cuz I don't have one. I think @evssv should be able to help

Kill switch, filters, pipe.
See how eveyrhing else goes after those 3

DDM has 2 of the 3 on that list for deal of the day right now.

I never owned a gasser and didn't realize how important the kill switch was until I watched a few vids on runaways.
Guys would a better carburetor be something to think about after a while? I don't know how good the stock one is but looking at the prices there not all that expensive.

Stock one is a 1107 (I think) which is good, I would say the 990 is better but for the time being I think it's fine. The 990 will improve throttle response but I'd learn the truck first then upgrade if you want.

Stock for the G320 is the 1107.
No need to upgrade the carb. Get some skid plates for the same price.
You can run that carb till it doesn't work anymore.

+1 @ Z.hb71. " learn the truck first then upgrade if you want."

hhm.....engine mesh mod......pullstart cover/filter cover......kill switch.......the bartalone front/rear chassis plates......then jus run it until it brakes.....

+1 for the outter wears and killer bee kill switch. Always need a litter protection before the first time

I'm going to order a FiveT 2.0 on Monday, it will be my first gasser. I'm ordering SuperBee fail safe, the battery, but what I'm not sure of is "WHICH" air filter I should buy. Does anyone have any suggestions for the most efficient AIRFILTER?

 

[Whoduh]

Stock air filter it comes will be fine starting out. Just make sure you get a prefilter(outerwears) for it.
I'd look at getting an exhaust pipe for it instead of getting a different air filter starting out....but....there have been some issues identified regarding servo arm clearance on some of the pipes.....
