My favorite pipe was destroyed in the last race. It was a ofna 063 polished. That pipe gave all my engines the most power and really good fuel milage. Ive replaced it with my 053 platinum and runs good but seams to run a lil hot and sucks the fuel down. So im looking for a pipe to replace my 063 cause i want a hard anodized pipe this time. they seem to be a lil tougher. I still want great power and fuel economy like the 063 did. any suggestions?

Is it for your Mamba? If so, I really like the Dynamite 086. Hard anodized, reinforced stinger...all for $50 @ A Main. You loose a little bottom, but you can run a long header or stiffer clutch springs to get the low end snap...

On my Mamba with the Dynamite 086/Ofna 086 header/Novarossi extender, Im getting about 8:45 with a smooth trigger finger and a little better than 7:30 if Im driving pinned. I need to try a few other pipes though. The 2013 is supposed to be good on the Mamba too...but I dont have one yet.
For the Werks engine, the 2013 is the pipe Ron, Marty and the rest of the Werks team recomend...its pricey @ $100 and no hardcoating. Sirio also makes a 2013, because the Werks engines are made in the same plant as Sirio (Star). There are a few other pipes they say work good (086, 053), but none work as well as the 2013.

I was about to add a different pipe but it probably wouldn't be too appropriate for the kids on this site since I live in humboldt.
