While 20+10=30, this does not equate to a 30% discount. A great discount nevertheless.

Really??

20% off retail price to start. On top of that, 10% coupon off entire order. Do the math.

My pleasure,

Let's take a part that costs $42.99 for example

$42.99*.7=$30.09 which is a 30% discount

$42.99*.8=$34.39 Multiply that by.9 and you get $30.95

You aren't paying 70% of the original cost, you are paying 90% of 80%, or in this case, 71.99%

ok I ordered the kyosho 1.3 8 hole pistons for my eb48 because I love how they worked in my sct410. but I was to fast on the draw and ordered the ones with the slanted holes. are they the same or are they going to work different. im going to try then none the less but what to see what you guys say. I know people have been talking about them, just don't remember what they were saying

Ok I stand corrected. It's a 28% discount. Still an awesome deal.

talking to someone with them, they sound like they offer too much pack for the conditions he has tried them in. If you still have the stock EB48 pistons (which from what I understand are either 1.1 or 1.2mm x 10 hole, correct?), you can seal off two of the holes and drill them out.

Or, the 8 hole x 1.3mm Tekno pistons were in stock last time I checked amain.

Kudos to you, many people these days have trouble admitting they were wrong.

I believe that the 10% off codes that pop up are single use only.

Think of it like a umbrella. I would think it would be harder to push ---->( vs ---->) being easy

If you're using cupped/tapered pistons, and you want more pack, you would do it this way
