Technical Performance
The muffler mount system in the HoBao Hyper SS/Cage Muffler Mount Set H90026 is engineered with the precision that nitro RC engines demand. The mounting brackets and fastening hardware are manufactured from quality materials designed to resist the continuous vibration cycles and thermal cycling experienced in nitro-powered applications. HoBao's engineering approach ensures that the muffler mount maintains rigid alignment with the engine block, preventing unwanted movement that could compromise exhaust performance or damage connecting components. The design accommodates the mounting requirements of HoBao's popular Mach 28 engines found in the Hyper Cage Buggy RTR and Hyper SS RTR variants, as well as the Hyper 21 3-port engine option. For users operating their RC models in the UK's variable climate conditions, from cold winter starts to hot summer bashing sessions, the material composition of this mount set provides reliable performance across the full temperature spectrum that nitro engines experience. The mounting system is compact and efficiently designed to integrate with the existing chassis geometry without requiring modifications to other engine-adjacent components.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the HoBao Hyper SS/Cage Muffler Mount Set H90026 compatible with all HoBao Hyper models? — No, this muffler mount set is specifically designed for certain HoBao Hyper variants. It is confirmed compatible with the HoBao Hyper Cage Buggy RTR with Mach 28 Engine (Orange and Black versions), the HoBao Hyper SS 1/8 RTR Buggy with either the Mach 28 6-port or Hyper 21 3-port engines, the HoBao Hyper SS Nitro RTR Off-Road Truggy, and the HoBao Hyper SS Cage RTR Nitro Powered Truggy in Black. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to ensure compatibility.
- Why would I need to replace my muffler mount? — Muffler mounts can become damaged through impacts, bent from vibration fatigue over extended use, or cracked due to thermal stress cycles in nitro engines. A damaged mount can cause the muffler to shift position, affecting exhaust performance, or in severe cases, allow the muffler to contact the chassis. Replacing the mount set restores proper alignment and secure fastening, ensuring your engine operates at peak efficiency.
- Is this a difficult part to install on my HoBao Hyper? — Muffler mount installation is a straightforward maintenance task that most RC enthusiasts can complete with basic tools. The mounting points are standard across compatible HoBao Hyper models, and installation typically requires only removing the old mount brackets and fastening the new set in place using the original engine mounting holes.
- What is the difference between the HoBao Hyper Cage Buggy and the HoBao Hyper SS models? — The HoBao Hyper Cage Buggy is a dedicated buggy chassis with a roll cage frame, whilst the HoBao Hyper SS is available both as a buggy and as the Cage Truggy variant with a longer wheelbase for off-road truggy racing. All three configurations use compatible muffler mounting systems, which is why this single H90026 mount set serves multiple model variants. The primary differences lie in the chassis geometry and wheelbase rather than the engine mounting points.
- Do I need any special tools to fit this muffler mount set? — Standard RC model tools such as hex key wrenches or ball-end drivers should be sufficient for installation, depending on the fastener types used in your specific HoBao Hyper model. Your model's user manual will detail the exact tools required and provide step-by-step installation guidance.
