Default pipe recommendations

So far reading the thread I'm under the assumption that;
2035 for all round power and good runtime
RE11 for good bottom and top end
2060 and re11 the same?
2072?

Could anyone else recommend a pipe? I'm after heaps of bottom end good mid and high plus 10min or more runtime.
I'm running this engine with a 14t and m2c 4 shoe clutch.
Thanks
The OS 2060 is a good combination but i fell the best pipe ive found which ive tried a lot, is the Orion 2013 awesome torque thats controllable,midrange is spot on,and the top end good gosh is crazy. We have a super long straight away and it hangs right beside OS Speed. Love these engines and thats half the battle for perfect preparation is having confidence in your equipment! Just my 2 cents! Thanks again VP Pro! Curt

tested a few more pipes:
086 - little light on bottom end with soft clutch and steel flywheel but mid to top is great

P4 -good all around

2013 - good all around

this is a great buggy engine

No, the standard version. So far, all seems to be going well.
The engine has close to a gallon on it and is race-tuned. I did remove the thin copper shim and that brought it in much better. Good bottom, mid and top using Losi RE10 pipe.

Using VP-Pro P3 glow plug. Will idle all day long.

The new Arrow GTR-21 V4 is in stock. It now comes with a purple head and a DLC Coated crankshaft for even longer pin wear.

Got mine broke in this past weekend.Running on an re10 pipe this engine runs as good as the v-spec and still holding its pinch.On an indoor track I was getting anywhere from 11 to 12 minutes on a tank,and will most likely get better runtimes once its fully broke-in.
