Hpu High Flow Exhaust

[beachthrottle]

Is this hpi high flow exhaust thats on the 5T much better then the stock CAN?

 

[jigawatt]

yep, better flow! The powerband is more apparent with it too. Anything is better than the stock can... gut it and you get a noticeable gain.

I got a jetpro pipe but it cracked right where u mount it to the side of the engine...

Would you like it fixed? I can do that. Let me know.

 

[beachthrottle]

tntjz3 thanks.. I sending it back to dino he is going to exchange it.. but I don't think I want to run a Jetpro anymore. I really don't like it hanging off the side..


why I am leaning towards teh High Flow pipe from hpi.. The bigest difference I notice with my stock can from jetpro is I don't have as much topend

 

[basher]

I also cracked my side mount jetpro after skiding into a tree. you can stop by any body shop in your city and one of the guys would gladly weld it back for you for free or $10 bucks. IF I WERE YOU I WOULD GIVE THAT MCD rr REAR MOUNT JETPRO A TRY, YOU WOUN'T BE DISSAPOINTED AT ALLtrust me. I have tried 3 motors in my TT. O'brothers 27.2 Pro mod 4 bolt. tossed my TT around like rag doll. Also tried the 27.22 reed and a 28.5 reed. Seems like that damn pipe could'nt even wait for any of those motors to git a little gas, and it takes over damn near with out a bogg. thats a rally good pipe and it fits pretty good. you'll have to make a brace for it though.

 

[tntjz3]

No problem, let us know which pipe setup you prefer.

Dude, get on Sprint77's lsit for the modded rear dom. IT IS A BEAST! and well protected in our Ramp MT's! Well worth the cash.

 

[beachthrottle]

I am on sprint77 list.. Just curious to what the HPI Highflow can is going to be like.... I run the Proline DesertRat body and honestly the jetpro and it don't work to well..


How much power loss are u going to get with the Hpi High Flow?


I don't want anymore bottom end power Just break more dogbones then!

Why not just get an XCan? They are better than the HPI 5T can and look a hell of alot better.

if you're on sprints list then hang tight...the 77dom is the pipe to have, imune to damage and makes great power...oh and it's super loud too

 

[beachthrottle]

i should have my 77dom next week. but I have 3 rampages now so trying to see how the Highflow runs.. I got 2 desertrat bodies to paint still also


i can say u need the buggy rear mounts for it. makes it easier


i hope it not to loud because HOA here stict!

 

[mooman007uk]

Oh it's loud..had my first complaint the other day at my fav bash ground...some stunned c#$t came out moaning...i'm going back tomorrow just to be nice


I'd use the buggy mounts but i want to keep the bumper so i'll hack something together

 

[beachthrottle]

loud is not good... how much difference will there be going from a jetpro to the hpi highflow can?

 

[str8jailbird]

Hey Moo, if you are gonna put the Desert rat on with Sprint's rear dom I suggest getting some aluminum tape. I used the rubber connector from the stock and a 90 degree piece of 1 inch copper to direct the exhaust down. With the Proline body the pipe ends right inside the rear left fender. I put some of the aluminum tape as heat shielding just in case. 2 tanks and no probs with any warping. Not sure if the exhaust would warp the body being undirected but why chance it they aren't cheap.

 

[mooman007uk]

yeah I've already spied that...i used the stock rubber and cut a piece of the stock stinger to extend past the wheel arch I will be getting some tape too for good measure I don't want to take any chances.


Beachthrottle the dom is louder than my fg baja jetpro by just a touch.


I don't think you'll like coming from the jetpro to a can...can's just don't get on the pipe.


Even though the dom is loud it is a torque monster


who are HOA? some busy body noise abatement society or what?

 

[beachthrottle]

I don't really need more torque.. I running 27/33 gears . I did like the Jetpro Top End.. just the jetpro hard to make bodies fit like my desert rat that hsa a whole roll of Muffler tape on i so the Jetpro doesn't burn a hole in the $120 Body!!!


I am going go try the Hppi HighFlow... I have a 28.5 Motor and Ihave to admit with the stock can its not that bad!

 

[speedbaboon]

isnt the HPI high flow exhaust more the same like a gutted stock can?? that's what i thought but not sure as i don't have one


i'm running a stock 23cc with gutted can atm .... but the exhaust mod master Sprint 77 is doing my RDLOGICS pipe (got the sh*t from my neighbours when i had rear dom on my Baja), really can't wait when it gets here .....
