IDM Picco
Has anybody tried one of these yet?
|
I have not tried one yet. If they are as good as I've heard that they are it is going to be in my car for the summer.
|
I just picked one up today. I will let you know what I think. A friend is running one and likes it.

Is this considered a mod motor (like EB Mods) or is it a designer motor?
Jim ~ Are you going to run the stock carb? |

Jim ~ Are you going to run the stock carb? Picco makes the latest Picco .12 engine in several fashions. Original Picco: Picco Evo2 Picco Evo2 Edoardo Picco Modified (Factory Mod called Edo Evo2) What you would call designer, or made under specs: IDM Evo2 LRP Spec3 Ofna JLR Red Dot Mega Zx DsII Moded or Tuned: Solaroli Tuned (Italy)...no sure if it's allready a designer engine right now WP Tuned (Italy) MR Tuned (Spain) Maxy Modified (USA) There could be others, but this is what I know so far, and all of them are very powerfull and competent engines which incorporate new lighter cranks, new carb, new conrod, new piston/ sleeve, and new head button...not sure thow on the Mega DSII or LRP...haven't seen their insides. I Have the OFNA JRL and the Picco Edo and they rock at par with any top engine on the market today. AFM |

Do you agree? The carb works fine...very stable... Break it in very rich, almost at factory settings with Nš 6 glow plug...one tank at idle and then 25 minutes at the track... After break in use Picco or Mega Nš 7 glow plug and set your low end needle at about 8 turns out and your high end at about 5 turns out...it takes several laps to warm up before you touch any needle for fine tuning from there... Enjoy AFM |

Thanks guys. As always, great info. :)
