Newbie Pipe ?

[Tony Tello]

I am new to the hobby and need some info here. I will be purchasing a NR Sheep21 outboard early Aug. Question: Should I go with the NR manifold and pipe or go with a Gadget carbon fiber pipe. If I go with Gadget will it fit the NR manifold. I dont want to do anything twice here during build. Thanks for your attention.. Tony

Tony, I would not recommend the Nova header and pipe. Any of the normal OB pipes will be better. I'm sure the Gadget will work great.

I use one of these headers with the unflanged 90 degree bend cut off. http://www3.towerhob...?&I=LXBZF5&P=SM

It will work with outboard pipes like the Gadjet pipe. see pic.

Tim, What is the white part covering pipe to manifold with ty raps? I am learnig here driving eveybody crazy with questions.

Hi Tony,

It's a silicone coupler. Generally thats how most boaters attach tuned pipes to headers. Oh and by the way, that pipe is not properly mounted yet. The silicone coupler is not sufficient to hold the pipe on it's own. It was just a pic I had handy.

The coupler (just a high temp silicone tube) also allows you to adjust the pipe length to make peak power. Generally shortening the pipe will give higher revs and less torque. Lengthening will do the opposite.
