I only know one guy running them and he can't really pinpoint if he likes them more than the CSI pistons.. he was running 37.5f and 32.5r last I checked.

More of us are running the CSI blue pistons with the serpent comb bladders. The comb bladder seat so much better than the stock pistons.

Part number for the CSI pistons is CSI-21-B
Amain is out of stock right now, but others will have them.
They are the ones made for Kyosho's

If your able to test drive one, if someone has one at your track. I was able to test drive one after a big event and ran it back to back against my Losi and it just flat out worked better. You can drive the corners and infield sections faster, it feels more planted then the Losi.

I sold my Losi 2weeks later and got the Tekno. Right off the bat, the first things I noticed was the quality of the parts and especially the Diffs were way better then the Losi. The othe rthing I liked, is I literally only needed (2) hex drivers to put the hole kit together.

I followed and read back through some of the pages and made notes of what people liked and what was working for springs.

I'm running box stock setup and only changed out the springs and the truck feels frickin great.

Response and aggression isn't necessarily the same thing. The reduced castor helps the turn in response, and the decreased weight transfer takes the aggression out (less traction front, more rear).

To me it feels like it tames down the trucks steering through out the whole corner a little bit.

i am. haven't settled on a wt yet. but on high bite ive liked 42 1/2 wt fr and 40 rr but i think 40 fr 35 rr would be better. on outdoor i'm still finding the sweet spot but i am going down on wts for outdoor loose tracks. trying 37 1/2 fr and 32 1/2 rr this weekend, and might try 35 fr 30rr depending on how it feels......all with tekno green fr and tekno red rear.

CSI pistons are sweet! I run CSI pistons in my rc8.2e and rc8t
wanted to try Fioroni's, nice! you can hit a 40' triple WFO no chassis slap and nose diving! Jumps like Vilopoto's machine!
the engineering on those pistons are amazing!
