I have a set of JMB mufflers but Santa Claus (aka my wife ) is mentioning a set of cans maybe under the tree. as for receiver I'm still undecided.

When it's installed in my Slick, I will take a pic and post of the BADASS edition DA 170, ask the sticker biotch he knows about them BADASS edition motors.
I actually had a Badass edition DA150 in my 43% Edge and here is the proof.

LOL, Ellie if i didn't love you like part of the family I would say something. And yes I am flying the DA's, 3W's and ZDZ's again but would give my eye teeth to have That BadAss FOX 150 back, that was the shizzle motor of all the shizzle I have ever had. That freaking 150 has more power than my 3WCS 170 which is stronger than my DA170.
