Default Nova p5XS, what friken pipe?

Iv been running this engine in my buggy and love it but I think the jp2 isn't the best pipe I have for it soo help me out.

My pipes I have are:
jp1 jp2 jp3
os 2050 2060
2013 werks, 2066 Orion
2035 ae

I am using the jp2 and bottom end isn't the greatest. Also fuel mileage sux.

Default I agree

The 9853ss pipe with the short round header is my favorite combo. You can also use the 9086 pipe for more top end on larger tracks....

I used to use a JP3 on a p5xs and it worked pretty good, so you might want to try that out.

Also, I used to use a 2066 pipe with the orion CRF, and I thought that pipe looked a lot like a nova 9886. Might be worth a try.

o.s. 2050 pipe will make that motor fly less run time then the nova pipes but will be faster have a ton of top end although o.s. 2050 is like on off switch but will make the motor scream

2013 hands down! Best pipe I ever ran on nova/rb motors! Works very good on os motors as a matter of fact also!

are you sure about that?


its funny you say that cause that is exactly the opposite of what i found , i thought the pipe had no top end on the 7 engines i tried it on (all novarossi) and got horrible mileage which is contradictory but what it was.

2013 first , jp-3 second out of the pipes you have

Monty, that 2013 is a Werks pipe? Is the 41021 header alright with it. I am running the 9853 now but thought I might try this.
