Pipe and manifold... how to choose
#1
Hi, I have been reading about it, and almost concord about the size of the track you are running in, small, medium or large.... but how to know this range...
Our track has the main straight about 60mts. and take about 18.5-19sec. to complete a Lap... how you measure the size?? to choose the correct combination of pipe and manifold... (ON ROAD)
thx fot the advise...

All engine manufacturers have their pipe selection for their engine models, and also a selection oh headers in different sizes. Basically they have pipes which enhance low end power (torque) and others which enhance high end power (high RPM), and different lenght headers (shorter= more RPM, Longer = more Torque). So if your track is tight and twisty you´ll probably best suited with a torquier pipe, and if it is a fast flowing track where you are at the gas most of the time, you are better with an RPM pipe...if it is a mixture between fast and tight and you´ll probably need the rpm pipe with a médium or long header.
By the way waht engine do you have? is it 1/10 or 1/8th On Road??
