I just bought my first rampage mt. I'm torn between the DDM Dominator and the CPI pipe. I want to order a killer bee cutoff switch and outwear covers for the pullstart and the filter but don't know which ones I need. Also I'm not sure if I should leave the stock filter and carb or swap it out like when I had my FG. Any advice?

If you are going to run it in dusty conditions I would say go with the Baja filter mounted to the angled shreadstack.

What about the stock carb (edited the 1st post). So the hpi filter with the part Sergio linked? Also which outwear covers because i don't see the Rampage Motor listed on DDM'S site.

Outerwears are made by filter type. The outerwear designed for the Baja filter will also fit the Redcat filter.

You will get better performance from a 813/998 or 990.

BLK CPI pipe

Your right I'll try to order the super this week. That way i can install that and my remote @ the same time. Remember last time took me a while how to figure out how to use the lil button on the side of the 3pk for the cut off on/off toggle. Hate looking thru that 110 page remote manual. Yeah I've had it for years and still don't know how to use all the features lol.

Thanks RCDAD. What are your thoughts on the metal cone type filters? Used to have one. Is it worth it to spend the money on them. Or is there a slightly better filter then that stock one or will that work fine. Or that TGN easy clearance one. Sorry for all the questions been out the 5th scale game for a while. Also thinking about adding this as well yay or nay. Almost trying to recreate all the hop ups I had on my FG. So I can start from there again lol

The paper filters won't keep out the dirt. There find for on-road, but inadequate for off-road.

The easy clearance filter is better than the paper, but only a singe stage filter. It just is going to depend on where you run the vehicle.

Ok thanks for all the information. I'll just add the stock HPI baja filter and the 8k clutch to my cart and order that & the CPI pipe... for now
