Looking to upgrade the 3.3 stock exhaust system to something made for a 21 or other big block set-up.
I think the stock Revo pipe is great for the original revo but isn't the best with the bigger 3.3.
I've got a preference for the Trinity Pipe set but I'm open to anything I can get a look at.
Please PM or post any replies.....

Ive heard people are having problems with the 3.3 and the Trinity pipe, like it doesn't have enough back pressure or something and it is causing the motor to over heat, I would try the THS or just get a different header for the stock pipe.

Someone told me about the header for the 3.3 Revo. That it bends down for some odd reason. I have already had to bend the header to get the pipe into position. I could tell right away that the metal would not handle much more of the bending.
I have done alittle bit of work on the stock pipe. I drilled out the stinger by 2 drill bit sizes and opened up the baffle inside by about 3/4 of an inch. It works fine but I could easily see a better pipe set waking up the motor.
Only problem is the new Traxxas Resonator pipe doesn't come with an upgraded header pipe. Something Traxxas should already know the Revo could use....

yeah, its the same with the 2.5 revo, you just need to upgrade, some people use a nitro rustler header.
