Default Are Turbo Plugs Legal?

I am just wondering if Turbo Plugs are legal for Nitro Touring Cars for AARCMCC events? I know they are for the Winter Champs coming up but I am not sure about the AARCMCC events.

Yes AARCMCC rules currently inline with the current IFMAR rules.

Merits and failings of turbo glowplugs
Hot glowplug guarantees a better adjusting of the engine at low RPM while the cold glowplug gives a better performance at high RPM. If you have a cold glowplug on your engine and have difficultes to keep it regular at low RPM, we advise you to make the base speed a little higher. In case the engine goes out again, we advise you to replace the above mentioned glowplug with a cold one; these difficulties in the carburation aren't due to a bad running-in of the engine but to anomalous climatic and meteorological conditions (see high degree of humidity, altitude, low pressure, etc...).
