Triton RC new engine...
#436
I have an italy made Hipex EFRA 2034 Terra Evolution with the Hipex "C" manifold.
The Hipex "C" manifold is much longer than the Picco Efra 2099 stock manifold.
I have never tried this 2034 on my Picco 5TR engine.
What wouls you recommend for the 5TR engine in Buggy.
- Picco Efra 2099 with stock manifold
- Hipex Efra 2034 with Hipex "c" manifold
or Hipex Efra 2034 with the stock picco manifold?

L4 and L4 are both 5 ports but the design is different which is why they are so very different from each other. You will hear buy hits or that from everyone you ask. In the end you just need to try something that has good feedback and see how it works for you. One thing if you buy a triton help is always a text or phone call away which guys really appreciate.
As far as tuning goes if you ask ask around and look at the feedback, most people who have tried a triton comment on how easy and stable the tuning is. There is a reason why some people say "best engine I have ever owned" that says a lot.

Has anyone run os plugs in these motors?
#441
80% of people whop have tried OS plugs will agree the do not work well in the Tritons. Our own results from testing are similar.

i have always used the OS p4 and never had a problem.....going on 9 gallons now
Lance i plan on sending you this motor for you to inspect
P4 plug OD 25% speed blend getting well over 10 in a MP9

Last week was RD2 for the Texas RC Pro at 439 Raceway in Belton TX.
Qual didn't go a as planned for Open Nitro Buggy..had very bad luck with other drivers. Started main day in dead last. So C Main dead last it is 10th...by lap 4 was in 2nd in a bump and was still pushing. Took the lead for a bit until i started to mess up and finished 2nd and into the B.
Started the B Main in last and by the 1st pit was leading. Went on to finish 1st to bump to the A pitting at 10mins
Started the A main in 11th took my time and made my way up to 2nd by the halfway point. Then my head started to play games with me as i said before the mains started that i was going to win playing the bump game. Well 2nd-5th started to battle and i came up on the short side of it and finished 5th. More of my own doing really but starting dead last on the day to finish 5th out of 35 is good on the weekend.
Triton L4 ran great all weekend with great fuel mileage using OS p4 OD 25% Speed Blend
I did have 1 flame out but that was do to a low idle and 9 gallons on the motor....bump the idle up and no problem

Has the chance to get out and do some testing with the Triton L5 today in my Tekno Truggy. L5 2099 pipe, 10 1/2 minute tank times and tons of power! That was on a pretty conservative tune being that I just broke the engine in a few days ago. Probably the easiest break in Ive ever done. These engines are absolutely amazing!

Tech Regular
Triton L3 has the break-in complete and ready for the track this weekend. We are going to attempt to out a video up of Collin running it on the indoor track.

Thanks so much for the feedback guys.
#449
Hands down, best engines, best support! Trying the L4/2034 combo this weekend. The L5/2034 is out of this world awesome!
