isnt it better to let the engine iddle half a tank of fuel then run in at half trothle for the reminder of and then at 75 OT rather than WOT from the begining. The point here is to "heat cycle" the engine, not break it. I think WOT method would put too much stress on the new parts would it not?

Helios.. have not use.. very advance with all programming features (optional) |

Tweak Station & Scale
Hey guys, reading and being a part of this thread has made me realize how important the setup should be.
Where can i buy a scale to get my car to the proper weight. I have the hudy set-up board and am just learning how to use it correctly.:confused: i remmeber MIP made a tweak board to balance the car, but i remmeber that racers had problems with the tweak board. Is there another version or a better one. thanks guys. |
