I have a T-Maxx 2.5 and my exhaust pipe is not up to par. I am wondering if i should get a tuned pipe or stick with stock? If a tuned pipe, which one? All ideas are appreciated.
 
I never liked the plastic pipes they came with so I took an old aluminum tuned pipe out of my original TMaxx and dropped it in my TMaxx 2.5r drilled a new mounting hole and modified an original mounting bracket to hold the pipe.
But if you want a better quality tuned stock pipe here it is

Are there an ones that are a little less expensive? And how much better is the performance with a tuned piPe? Is it worth the extra cash?

Yes it is worth the extra cash spent.

You need to upgrade to a high flow air filter too, the old button style your 2.5 maxx came with won't flow enough to work with the new tuned pipe.

Ebay is your friend here!

Thanks guys guys. Thats probably what I'm gonna go with.
 
Resonator,,,,is worth the money ! get one! and they sound pretty sweet !

and plus one on the high flow air filter !!!!
 
I just dropped both of those (pipe & filter)on my Wife's 2.5 & it really woke it up, best coin I've dropped on her truck besides better servo's.
