cant see why not, very similar pipe, but will check with Stevo.Simon has his on the buggy and the fit is much better, better quality, prefer the way its mounted to the manifold and it sounds absolutely awesome specialy on the overun :D

Paul the Pro pipe was designed for the high reving 27.2 jobs ,no bottom in them , Simon has a victory
std pipe I sold him ,bottom exit though ,which will work much the same as a Samba , thats why I asked  ;) ;)

If the Engine is a evotuning Engine I do not recomend the pro pipe, these where desgined for mainly standard engines and not tuned engines, we have tested the pipes with my engines and they did not work very well on low end, excellent pipe for a standard engine. and they do like to rev

Paul, the standard VRC will work with stock and tuned engines, irrespective of the cc. The Pro Pipe likes a high revving 4-bolt head tuned engine, it has a poor low end compared to the standard VRC and Samba pipes but the top end is mental.

I briefly used my Stage 3 smooth 28.5cc evo.tuning engine with the Pro Pipe and the results weren't good, however that might be down to the clutch engagement point which as I later found when Ian Oddie dynoed the Pro Pipe was way too low. The dyno results are here http://www.mcdracingforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=2869.0 (http://www.mcdracingforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=2869.0)

You are welcome to try my Pro Pipe with your engine.

lol i had already seen that on modelismo, but cheers anyway chaps :P besides i have been advised to stick with the samba so might splash out on the new one with feet :o

You going for a down or side exit samba with feet ???  down no problem ,but the side exit is further
forward then the old pipe ,so makes for needing a new /bigger exit hole in the shell ,and I don't
think the feet one is that good fitting wise ,It should be ,I put one on the rally ,but had to Insulate
the roll bar ,and bend it on the front mount ( home made )  ,to clear the radio box . ;) ;) ;)
see my X4 out of the box post.
