Default tin can pipe, good idea?

hi, i got into making tuner pipes and such , and made my first pipe, from a coke can and jb weld. i find that my t-maxx runs much better with it, and when i ran with it, i checked its temp, and it was good, so what do you think? will the jb weld fall apart under the vibration and heat after a few more runs? give me your opinion, and laugh if you want!

hey, not a bad idea! plus, they are quite lite! it idles like a dream! i just take the throttle off, and it idles happily! my engine is old, so i dont know if it could be put on a new engine and run the same...

would you buy one on ebay if i did some major research and made them better? cause i may just do so! why not make one in sprite? or even rootbeer!
or pepsi! great ideas! lol

BUT ..onyl thing is if you just made a stock design like a normal straight side exhaust it would sell on ebay some people would buy it to try it out.....like make a standard size 1/8truck exhaust like a savage exhaust.......if it was on ebay and tested i would buy it.........take video of it running put a link in ur auction...always helps with r/c cars and trucks
