Why do you prefer the 2035?

cjm1126 10-07-2008 01:00 PM

just seemed to have more bottom end power with the pipe, wasnt a huge difference they both work better then the 2053 that comes with the promo kit, if you have a 053 or 9853 allready, go ahead and use it, you will be happy with it, if you are gonna be buying a new pipe you can get the thunder tiger with manifold from amain for 46.99

Thanks for trying to help me, but you're way off, especially on the LSN. You numbers didn't sound right so I emailed GRP support in Italy and their reply is below:

"Please return both needles to their original position (all in). Then, turn the low speed needle fully 3,5 times out and the high speed needle 3 times out for .21 engines."

That's funny I called Horizon Hobby support and they told me 6 out on HSN and 2.5 out on the LSN. I ignored their advice since that too seemed way off.

El Tigre 10-09-2008 07:26 AM

Yeah, I would think that 6 turns on the LSN would bog any engine out there. Normally the stock settings place an engine at a overly rich setting at around 3 1/2 - 4 turns so I know that 6 turns is drowning an engine with fuel.

cjm1126 10-09-2008 08:00 AM

i was told by horizon 4hsn 2.5lsn, it seems like everyone gets a different answer

desertbird 10-09-2008 10:38 AM

I'm running around 5.5 LSN and 3.5 HSN consistently with P3 plug temping around 185 - 190 good smoke excellent power; engine runs great. Sorry my numbers were way off for ya.

Check this out before you start running your LSN too lean. Also, it's always a good thing to use the search feature of this forum you will typically find answers to your questions before you have to ask them...

I'd forgotten about the search feature. Thanks. I'll check em out.

Is there any point of getting the GRP 21 promo kit because i heard the pipe in them are preety average and that the Hong Nor 2062 is way better.

Should i just buy the engine itself then instead of the whole kit?

agressive1 10-12-2008 03:21 AM

just put in 3 tanks in my GRP 21 PROMO. By far one of the easiest engines to run in.

A++++

Cleaning up my pit boxes and I have a used GRP Ninja .21 carburetor and cooling head. Anyone interested please email me at [email protected].
