Default Pipe and Break-in stand Question

I just got a OS .18 for my Maxx. I have a tuned pipe for it. A friend of mine gave me something called a stinger pipe and said it would "wake up" my .18. He is a total Big Block guy. Anyway what is the difference, and it is something I should do.

Also should I break in my new motor on a break in stand or in the truck. Any opinions?

I would break it in right on the truck. As for your question I can't tell you because I don't know.

I had a Dynamite pipe on my t maxx when I had a 12 size engine on it. It worked very well but eventually the header part that comes off the engine broke from the vibration so I had to replace it. Now I have one with an adjustable baffle. It covers a variety of motors.
