Can you guys give me feed back on the Sirio 2056 pipe. I was thinking of trying it on my clocked b5 pro, not sure though how it would do. We are getting rained out everywhere we try to go test.

confirmed.... that is the bat pipe, terrible pipe design.....Unless of course your after drastically reducing the engines power, RPM and mileage....

if that is the bat pipe it is junk ! I am not sure what goofball came up with that pipe design, but its terrible..... run the 2058 and be happy !

Guys the Nova 41001 is a very good pairing with the P5 and a 9886 pipe. Keep in mind the 41021 header will provide more grunt. Don't be fooled by the "smooth" moniker that Nova gives it. It's meatier than the 41005 or 41001 header.
I have run the 2096 pipe with the 41001 header and it's a nice combo. Smooth and with a nice mid/top response. The 41021 and 21096 combo had more bottom end grunt with a similar mid range but the top was a bit sluggish.
Just my $.02.

How on earth does something get in that close benind the front wheel to bend the stinger on a truggy, you are the man frank.
I have only ever bent a stinger in by maybe 3-5mm which was a heat up and bend back out straight.

When I raced a while back I had a few of the nova pipes bending like that. The material is very thin and the leverage the nipple has in relation to the strength of the skin is greater. If it gets hit hard it simply collapses the skin of the pipe especially when its hot. A simple tig weld around the nipple to reduce the leverage the nipple has is what worked for me. I just pulled my pipes off and did them this morning. You have to be very careful when tig welding these pipes as to not put enough heat to blow thru into the cavity. The puddle just needs to penetrate 70 percent of the material otherwise you will compromise the pipe.
