Help! 50CC IMAC PLANES TUNED PIPE READY OPTIONS?

I have a brand new BME 58 Xtreme with a ES Composites Carbon tuned pipe and am planning on flying IMAC basic! What planes are available that are tuned pipe ready I notice a lot of manufactures say pipe ready but they are canister ready? Any input greatly appreciated!

All of our 50cc aircraft are. The Extra 300 is probably the best of our offerings for IMAC competition, although we have had many wins with our Yaks as well. See here: http://www.extremeflightrc.com/html/rewards.html

Extreme Flight 88" Yak and Extra. One of my friends has an EF Extra with a BME 58 and ES pipe. It fits right in no problem.

For IMAC, go with the Extreme Flight 88" Extra 300. It is rock solid, fights the wind well, snaps beautifuly, tracks impecably well, and is the highest quality arf that you'll find! I highly recomend it! There's a reason that's what I fly!
There are many great 50cc planes out there, but IMO you won't find a better one for IMAC!
Your 58 with the tuned pipe will be awesome on that plane! I have a DA-50 with a KS 1060 on mine, and it has very good verticle performance. Your 58 will be even better! Also the Extra has a built in pipe tunnel, and instalation is very easy.
Hope this helps!

I would Sell the BME & Carbon Pipe, and Buy my Carden CUDA with a DA-50 and MTW Canister, Fly Basic with that.

If you are looking for options, Ohio Model Products will have next month three 50cc planes that are canister ready. The Yak SP-55M, Extra 300 midwing, and MX2. Don't get the Cuda, it is too heavy compaired to the newer generation planes from Extreme flight, Aeroworks and OMP. OMP's website is www.ohiomodelplanes.com.

Might have to be an Extreme Flight Edge 540T?

That plane will be EXCELENT too! You can't go wrong with either! The Extra is just a little longer, and that'll help a little in IMAC, but those two planes along with their Yak are THE best! I can't recomend them enough!
Btw, I'm not a team pilot that has to say this stuff. I'm just giving you my honest opinion, and am speaking from experience!

I'm not trying to be rude Daniel so please don't take it that way, but you say "speaking from experience". Is that experience with many types? I know you have lots of experience with the Extreme Flight 300 and you talk up its attributes every chance you get, but how does it compare with similar types of similar sizes? I ask because it's on my shortlist to purchase.

Thanks,
Brad
