CVEC is great but illegal....

For the T-Maxx (or other Maxx series trucks) I would suggest the THS curved pipe, or the RD Logics curved pipe. I had the RD Logics pipe on a stock 2.5 and it really woke up the engine. Brought out a LOT more bottom end, and a pretty good increase in top end as well.

They are great pipes but VERY loud. Louder than the trinity pipe on a revo... by a lot. I think it breaks the sound level for a legal pipe but at LH I doubt they would say anything...

The THS curved pipe is nowhere near as loud as the Trinity pipe. It is louder than a stock pipe, but that is expected with a higher flow exhaust.

The pipes Tex has are the Sirio Big Bore pipe and the Fantom pipe. Both of them are great pipes as well.

This is the THS pipe I was talking about:
THS Curved Pipe for Max trucks

The RD Logics pipe is the same pipe.

Oh... that isn't the one I am thinking of. The one I was thinking of had more of a curve to it (seriously looked like a banana) with the opening right in the middle of the curve. It also had a raw finish to it.... Can't remember the brand then.

That's the Ritter Banana pipe. It is quite loud. I think they were the first to make an exhaust for Nitro R/C made of Carbon Fiber (They also had a steel version). They originally started off as an exhaust manufacturer for 2-cycle dirt bike engines, and one of the guys had an R/C and decided to try to make a pipe for his truck...

RD Logics Curved T-Maxx pipe is by far the best one I've found for the 2.5 if your plans include upgrading to a larger engine in the future it will handle a 18TM or TZ but if you go bigger than .18 I'd suggest the Sirio Big Bore or the RB version for the TM323

The THS and RD Logics pipe are the same thing. Either one will really wake up your truck.
