I know Pro Boat has a bad rep with alot of folks,
But I got a shock wave 55, with a zenoah 26, and prather 270 prop,
Its prop it not as much surface ,as say a enforcer style drive.
It runs on it's 2 second tank 36.4mph on the GPS.
Does anyone know if the tuned pipe off the 1/8th Miss Bud from pro boat will fit in the hull,
or should I be looking at a pipe from Wharehouse Hobbies?
Any tips for this hull besides throwing it away? :)

I was out at the lake today and a friend of mine has a Wharehouse Hobbies Team sport ..with a wet pipe,,, it seem to work ok..if your shock wave has a wet pipe system then the Wharehouse Hobbies system will work..The only thing i dont like is useing those kind of couplers.
On my Miss Bud..i changed it to a wrap to center hanson style..
Works great

im just a newbie to gas boats but my shockwave 55 ss has a tuned pipe on it i would think it is a bolt right up being the same hull i choose the ss for the clutch and water pump and dual rudders.

Thanks,
Yeah, that what I'll buy, I didn't know weither the parts were available for it yet since it was a new release, but they are in stock at Horizon.
I still am lost from the above post on sealing and fitting?

I think it was that it may not match or line up with the setup that was in the boat.
You may have to fit and seal to make it work
good luck...I still have the exhaust header for the MissBub.Not sure what to do with it just yet..Being that i changed over to the hanson wrap to center to do away with those couplers
