it says to use a max of 25% do i need to shim for 30% and i have a new gallon of 20% but i run 30 will it hurt in the long run if i used the 20 to break it in ,and i have a jp3 pipe at the moment will that be a good pipe or should i get the 053 its a smaller tight track with good size jumps ' but not alot of run up on them
i race at rescue mini speedway

you can use 20% and, it runs fine but 25 % it runs better yea i would add a shim if you use 30 %.
well what i been told, my a racer is if you broke it in with a certain amount of nitro than it will run best with that.
i think a 53 pipe whould, be better actually because when i used the 86 pipe on a small techinal track it was hard to hit some jumps.

yes sir
it does NOT need an 086 pipe at all uness you have LONG straight aways. mine struggled more with the 086 than an 053!!! i wasnt able to make jumps out of the turns with the 086 but made them with ease with the 053, gave it a little more bottom AND gave it 2 min more run time. i got over 10 min a tank with 053 versus barely making 8 min with 086. if your track isnt wide open then 053 is all you need. i just do not see why everyone needs all this top end power when 90% of the time you cant even get to it. this isnt a drag race guys, just saying 
also the GRP is way faster than that engine. youll probably want your GRP at smaller tracks.

then you could gear up a tooth on a larger track, but if it's small or medium then run it how it's normally geared with the 053...short round header....

O'donnell 99 or McCoy 8. i liked the OD 99 better. also you dont have to shim it for 30%, it wont hurt it at all or shorten life. they recommend 25% tops but thats mainly for break in. i ran 30% with no trouble with the same engine and so does everyone else. i know someone with 8+ gallons on theirs running 30% with stock shims. 20% is going to be super slow 
trust me, i tried it lol

if your using 30% add a shim and use a cold plug or a meduim plug.
if 20% a, meduim plug and when it gets cold outside use a hot plug.
if you choose, to use 20% the shimming on it is for 20% to 25 % just like my rb is.
sorry double post.

trust me, i tried it lolwhile i do agree that 20%, can be too slow but i think depends on how much oil is in it i know my, ebmods fuel is about 10% and byrons 20% is 12%oil.
i think its fast enough .

EB mods is almost the exact same as byrons, my engine runs hotter with EB mods, over priced fuel IMO. also i did test with 30-9 and 30-11, my engine was faster and ran cooler with 30-11 but my dads engine ran cooler with 30-9. but with these 3 port Nova, you NEED 30% or woull be WAYYY under power. ive owned 2, mod and stock, you need ever bit of power possible, these arent very powerful. 20% is to low , 25% will be better, i wouldnt run anything lower than 25%...

) because they seem to have a bigger tuning window and all, but man they are a pain to change also on plug choices, the colder the plug the smaller the tuning window will be

its the same persentage oil as byrons fuel ? i guess the ebmods website is lying then. i might me racing, this sunday and, i did finally get my engine running better than it was so i will see how fast it is .
yea it does cost more, than byrons fuel but the main building is in pa and a lot of guys run it at my track. i just hate to competly retune a engine to run 30 % .
but doesnt 30% have a smaller tuneing window ? im not that good at tuneing man.
and i do have a lot of fuel left in my 20% gallon.
