Ok, I was running my 2.5pede today. It was running awsome. I was having so much fun drifting in some sand until I hit a a tree sideways.:o Of course, it was the side with the pipe<_< It nocked the pipe loose of the header. I figured, no biggie I will just put the pipe back into the coupler. Then I looked the header and it was pointing downwards.:wacko: That ended my day.:mad:

Sooo.. I either can: 1. try bending back the header.2.get a new header.or 3.Drop some coin and get the THS pipe kit.

The thing I like about the THS pipe is that the header is held on by springs so it will just pop loose instead of bending.^_^

Now I have to decide what I am gonna do.<_<
What do you guys think I should do?
Does anybody use the THS pipe on their pede?

I don't know much about this, but I'd try bending it. If it doesn't work (breaks, or is just plain unsatisfactory) then the worst that can happen is you need to buy a new one. Just my thoughts, since my npede is almost as stock as the day I bought it.

Yeah, that's what I will probably try doing. I am just getting sick of my pipe coming off(my pipe comes off alot). :mad:

I went ahead and bent back the header. It was really out of wack. Made some nasty crackling sounds when I was almost back to normal.:fear: Looks kinda stressed out too.:( Oh well, it at least it works for now.

Does anyone use the THS pipe on their 2.5 pede? I would really like to how it fits.

There is 2 different pipes that could fit:

click here for the stadium truck one (https://secure.handzon.com/itechapp/admin/checkout/?storeid=1531&prodid=37995&storereferer=http://thsracing.com/110-carstrucks.html)

I have no clue which one would fit better.:unsure:

Anybody out there that has this setup?
