ok I took my evo3 out in my TM G4S for a club pratice session today and its running well, I then got the tuned motor out in my TM G4RS and wow I dropped a second easy,I would have to compare the tuned picco to the novarossi race 353, even more low down power than the standard evo3 and when it gets going down the staight it picks up some serious speed. I know its another $100 or so more than the standard evo3 but its worth it especially when the equivalant nova is about $400. also running in this engine I found that the idle is so consistant no flame outs it went thru the whole tank without missing a beat.
very happy with my picco engines

According to the dyno testing done between the Picco and hte Nova...it appears the Picco's do make more power then the Nova's..... I am referring to the standard JLR,i can only imagine the tuned version is even stronger

I noticed a sleeve shim in the pics. Dont wanna loose that. Looks like they prolly just shimmed the stock JL3 liner up and prolly gave it some rotor timing.
Motor looks hot though. Anyone ran it?
