SMJ Kabuto Spec 3 silencer

Kabuto, the engine brand from Japan’s SMJ, has released two new tuned silencer sets for 1:8 and 1:10 Onroad competition. For 1:8, the new silencer set is perfectly matched for the Kabuto 7 port engine which shows responsive characteristics to throttle input. The overall shape of the silencer has been thickened to increase power in the mid to high speed range. In addition, the combination of the straight type MR03 manifold dramatically improves pickup at higher RPMs and allows the driver to experience overwhelming power from low speeds to the top end of the range. For 1:10 the Kabuto silencer is known for its top-end power. Based on the O.S. Speed T1070C, the high performance and reliability of the T1070C has been retained, while the MT03 manifold, which has a new shape and greatly improves exhaust efficiency, has been combined with the T1070C to bring out a higher level of power across the entire throttle range. You will be able to feel the outstanding throttle feeling not only on high-speed circuits with long straights, but also on technical circuits.
