Best pipe for O.S. VZ-B V-Spec II?
Options are aplenty, but info is not. I've "narrowed" it down to 8 options:

Either the Losi RE11 or the AE 2035. I've used them both. The RE11 is a little smoother but the 2035 gives a bit more power.

OS 2060 (Mugen 2042 same pipe) OS 2050 (Losi RE11 same pipe). The 2060 will give you more top end the 2050 will cut the top end off a little bit. I have also been told that the JP3 works great too. Personally I would go with the OS 2060 or Mugen 2042 with the 2060 header or Mugen L shaped header. I have the Mugen 2042 with a L shaped header on an OS speed and I love it. I didn't like the 086 and the 053 pipe did ok it just was a little less responsive and cut the top end off. 053 and a long header was worse than the 053 and a med header or short header. Bottom line is 2060 is the best and 2050 is a good 2nd choice.

you "narrowed" it down and left out the 2 best pipes...
2050 for truggy, 2060 for buggy
2050 for truggy, 2060 for buggy

Holy sh!t, thanks for all the responses. I think I found a new homepage.
Anyhow, the reason I didn't list the OS pipes was because they are out of my budget (over $100). I only want to spend $60 on a pipe, and maybe $80 if [the] pipe is that much better.
I didn't know the Associated pipe was so good (mentioned in the same breath has the "re-badged" RE11 (OS 2050) and cult-favorite JP-3.
Thanks again for all the responses, I really do appreciate it!

Definitely the OS2060, a little more pricey, but it's worth it in performance and the long run.

EB Mods 2041 = best performance/mileage pipe available for the V-Spec
Smooth delivery like a 2060 but with the power of a 2050
Broader torque than a 2035 and longer revs like a 2013.
You can set you clutch heavier (.95 spring + high bite shoe) to smooth it out even more.
(Clutches last longer as do the bearings from reduced slip/ heat)
It's almost like driving an electric buggy.

Which sounds the best? I have a O.S 2050 but I can't hear it on the track.
