Cool.

I finaly got a decent pipe on my .24 pre run. Running an 086 with the short V header with a p4 plug.

It's about 50 degrees outside and it ran for about 10.5 minutes @ 185 degrees. I assume that is hot enough on the inside to burn up the oil???

That motor is insane. It revved up so quick and smooth... it scarred me like it might pop from the r's! I can only imagine what the full mod would be like!

So far I only have about 6 or 7 tanks in it. I got a big race next week to give it the test! I am sure it will pass.

chambers hows the power from top to bottom with the 086 pipe .......

I know the FM .21 is INSANE on an 086. Hits hard and revs so high its scary.

yeh this would be my first sirio based motor ...but everyone i have seen run ...seemed to have an endless amount of top end ...planning on really running a 2053 grp on chads recommendation of the pipes i have ...im sure i will try the 053 and the 086 as i have both as well ....most of the tracks im running on are not very long straights ....so i dont need as much top end as i need bottom to mid transition .....mark smith at powerhouse finished me up and i had him mod it to lend itself better to the 2053 grp to try and smooth it out a little ...should get it back tomarrow ...but prolly wont run it for a bit ....still gotta have a few more tanks through the grp and replce the bearins in it ...then im gonna strap up the extech :nod:

anyone tryed 2041 mielke pipe or EB 2041 on 24 extech?

I need .24 shims does anyone know where to get them? I trird the trinity site already and could not find them. thanks

Give Chad a call. He will hook you up.

EX TECH .21

im gonna use an odonell 97t ...others have said an os p4 work great as well

Yup,
The O.S. P4 works very well. In a pinch I have gotten a P3, Rossi 5 and 6 to work. Tried the 97T and didn't really like it so much, might work for you.

what didnt you like about the 97t ?

is any one using the jpe pipe with the .21 and if not waht pipes worke with the 21. thank you

last year i ran the jp 4 and was told buy a guy who dyno'd these pipes on the engine that they are terrible for this engine. he told me to run the 2013 or if i was cheap the dynamite 086, but this was before the new trinity pipe came out so that is what i run now.

thank you i will try one of the extech pipes

Chad

Still waiting for the tracking # that you were supposed to email me...

frank how duz the 086 pipe on the .21

086 runs strong.

never ran it but i am told it dyno'd really well not as good as the 2013 but really good. I do not know how it compares against the new pipes? 2056 big boy?

The 086 dynoed the highest of all the pipes tested. That doesn't mean it's the best pipe to suit your purpose. For me an 086 and 053 are ALWAYS in my bag otricks if nothing else is working. Lovin my 2056 right now though thats for sure.

is that the 2056 sirio pipe

Same pipe as the Sirio 2056. But the Extech "Big Boy" 2056 is a bargain! Better runtime and a smoooooth powerband.

Rico - you have mail ;)

Hey Chad just checking if my engine made it to you yet? you got pm thanks

.21 or .24
 

i know this is the ex-tech .21 thread but im running a cen matrix with bce conversion and wondering which is more suitable the .21 or .24 extech.kinda new and this will be mine and my sons first season to race. any help is greatly appreciated.

the .21 for the buggy ...the .24 is made for a truggy :nod:

ok let me rephrase my question what are average run times and performance differences between the two.is the extech .21 strong enough on bottom for a truggy is the .24 still a little much for an inexperinced driver just wanting solid opinions from those that have these engines before i spend my hard earned money again thank you

WEll I ran the .24 for its maiden voyage this weekend at a race with 137 entries. Qualified 9th out of 44 truggies and blew the rear diff in the main!

I ran a P4 plug, 1.0 springs with a 14 tooth in my X2 with the 086 with the V Header. Temp was 45 to 55 over the day, I ran it about `1/4 turn rich on the bottom from pre-run settings..

All I can say is Friggin A once I got the bottom tuned in ... which was real easy,,,this thing Ripped hard and the Top end was insanely fast. Plenty of bottom when I neeeded it. Pull it off and it purred like a kitten!

A little trick I did to get temps up was to put 2 -1/10 scale pANTHER tire gluing bands on the top off the head! Worked Great

I was catching and making up ground on my C6 buddies like they had an old OS RG ,21 motor!

Zixxer,
I just didn't like the way the 97T plug ran for me, plus I a bunch more to choose from that ended up being better. The 97T says its a medium plug, but for me it didn't act like a medium, more like a hot plug. It could have been just me that day. I tried a bunch of different plugs, one because I had some already and two, because maybe I could get one running well enough for me even though many said it didn't run well in their motors.
What I have come to know is that the the Ex-Tech #5's and P4's work the best for me. In a pinch I can get by with a P3, maybe more so if the weather is cold. Rossi #5's worked, but didn't seem to last me that long and the #6's were just way too cold. That is unless the outside temp was above 90 to 95 (in low humidity were I am at). Just what worked for me. So far both of my mills have been trouble free tuning wise and just run. Fast. Makes the race day that much more fun when you don't have to keep chasing the tune. Granted the tune is not always at the best for a given day, but close enough not to have to mess with it. I ran almost the whole season at the "Fat" settings on the carbs. Leaned it them out to the "Tuned" settings towards the end. Didn't think the motors could get any better, but they did.

LOL. I told you you'd like it Chambers. Wish I could have made it this weekend. You coming to H'town for RC Pro next month? I want to see the .24 run.

you will definitely get more run time out of the .21 ...i have the .24 and am running it in a jamminx2 ....i have yet to strap it up because i have a grp in there right now ...in a cen matrix i wouldnt see any advantages to running a .24 ....unless you just wanna do full throttle pulls up and down your street ...alot of people even insist that a .21 is best in a truggy as well ....they say that because of the fuel milage difference ...stick with a .21 in the cen matrix ...you will not be dissapointed .....as for the run times im looking at getting at least 12 minutes on 150cc of fuel ...in a buggy you will have 125 cc of fuel ....

thanks for all that is exactly the kind of info i was needing just put a new motor in my 8 year olds losi 8 sportwerks .21 v2 now its my turn thanks again

Thanks chad for the great customer support!!

trinity extech 24
 

anyone got any video of one running?? trying to decide b/w the pre run and the full mod for my rc8t. also, where can you get the bat pipe? I don't care what it looks like as long as it works. I'm looking for smooth strong controllable power with good run time (10 min+ tanks in med size track). I normally run rb c6 and ws7III's.

Looks like the bat pipe is still out of stock at Amain, your best bet would be to contact Chad and see if he's got one for ya. If I were you I would go ahead and get the full mod as your only talking a $50 difference, that motor absolutely screams while getting 10+ minutes a tank...:nod:

Strong possibility!

You coming up next weekend to N-Control for the Texas Twister benfit race? I think it was the biggest race of the year last year in Texas!

Hey Chad, just wanted to let you know I finally got to try the motor out and everything runs great!! Thanks again for your help, plus 1 for customer support!

Think I'll be in Huntsville next weekend doing some single-speed riding. Least that's what my wife informed me today, LOL. Should be at RCP though, we'll get an Extech pit section going, ha ha ha.

our ExTech Igniter's are in stock now. So is the Big Boys.. There shipping to Amain today..

Hey chad were you able to get my package out this week? Just wondering when to start looking for it, do you have a tracking number? thanks Frank:)

I just wanted to comment on the great product support that Chad and Trinity have gave me with my ExTech .21. A page or two back I posted having a problem with erratic tuning and some leaking issues around the carb. It turns out my carb had a small flaw around the base where the carb boot seats. Chad sent me a new carb and the problem is fixed. The motor tunes and runs perfectly. Thanks
