Default What pipe for a RB S7 .21 engine?

I am currently running a JP3 pipe on my RC8 with a new RB S7 seems like it could use a little more low end but screams on top end.

What do you recommend on a pipe for this motor? Or should i stick with what i have?

I would try the rb 2045 pipe.

if you can get by on milage, i always liked a jp-1 on this motor, it gives it a noticable boost on the bottom, but you will be pushing it to go 7 min. on a tank of gas.

on my gf's d8 she used a ws7 x3 with a Ae pipe. she gets around 8-9 min. on it.

she loves what she gets out of it, and plus the pipe is just under 50 bucks.

cant beat it.

the TTR pipe is the same thing.

just my 2 cents.

RB 9863 pipe is the two chambered loder version of the 2045. Less restrictive and plenty of bottom end. JP-1 is a fuel hog. Pair it with a short round header.

I heard somewhere the AE pipes are really nice for the price, but they fold like a taco if hit hard enough. The JP1 would be a nice combo, but you will lose full mileage.

+1, when i was running this motor before i started running Trinity products, i researched this a bit and the other option seemed to be the RB2020...if you can still get one im not even shure... it was supposed to be the bottom end pipe from RB

I run a jp-4 on both my rb c7 and ws7 and the pipe seems to work good on both motors just my opinion

With the JP3 pipe durning practice im getting about 7-8min. I am only running local club races and in the 10 min heat i pit at a 5-6 min window, and i use the same 5-6 min window durning all mains just to be safe with no flame outs. I would rather take an extra pit than have a flame out.
But i might try the 2045 pipe and see, Anyone tried the new JP6 pipe yet?

Try this pipe it really wakes up the bottom end and gives great run time. I can do 9 mins easy on my S7.

i think the s5 has a better bottom than the s7 but dont have the top end, so pipe selection could be different. i think the jp-3 is a mid to top pipe so it should work ok.........but then again i ran the s7 for a while never tried the s5......to get the best milage you need the RB pipes.....at least thats what the experts (RB) say.....

Thumbs up

On the S7 i run the JP-4. It gets the best bottom end and race speed of all of the pipes I have tried. I have prefered the Losi RE-11 as of late for fuel milage and smooth power band. It will push 10 minutes with a 7mm restrictor.

Where do you race at??
I'm at Indy all of the time.
