After talking about it on FB pages, I found out all those pipes are made to fit the slanted exhaust on the Picco and Reds .21 engines so I put one of my JP pipes on that engine instead.
Worked out really good though.
Since I had this really nice Picco pipe and stilll needed to decide on an engine for my RC8B3, I bought a .21 2016 spec Picco.
The 1st pic is the Picco pipe attached to the .28. The next 3 pics are the same pipe on the .21 and installed in my RC8.
Hey how's it going, thanks for responding to me!
So the Picco pipe doesn't fit correctly on the .28 5TR then cause the Picco pipes have a bent manifold for bent exhaust port? Sometimes different engines use different sized exhaust gaskets I noticed.
That's good to know. What Jp pipe did you put on it? I have two jp3 and one jp4. I think I'll just try one of those for now or I'll try the novarossi pipe I have now. But if someone knows a Picco pipe meant for the .28 5TR engine let me know! Thanks
