<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've seen it done on numerous planes using that
set-up. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It works, but it lacks a little power and isn't
quite as smooth as a properly tuned 2 stroke pipe. But it does work fine. If you
later on convert over to the 2 stroke pipe, at that time you'll notice a
difference. until then you'll be amazed at how well it actually does run on that
set up. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It's just not ideal, and a particularly fussy
masters/FAI pilot might not find it to thier liking. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>But nothing beats a 2C140M80 ES pipe for the OS.
That's simply the best pipe I've run across for that engine.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I'd like to know if anyone has tried or is
currently using the following set-up with good results. The set-up would be a
OS 140 RX, with original OS header coupled to a YS 4 stroke tuned pipe (HATORI
#698 <FONT face=Arial>FAI Pipe for 120~140-4C). I 've read somewhere on the
net that this set up would run fine, although I would not get the power
increase as from the 2C pipe. Any comments will be
appreciated.</FONT></FONT></DIV>
