Even on the newer version of those low end carbs the idle screw is reversed, they now have dedicated onroad and offroad carbs to make us all happy.



yea i dont like the postion that the s5 carb its a pain to adjust the idle without hitting the flywheel lol.

Let me get this RB "off-road" engines thread back on page one.
I dunno why, but see the RB "on-road" engines thread is also sharing
the page.

You're kidding? Don't get me wrong the nova has done well in buggy, great fuel mileage and adequate power, but the B10 will kill the nova power wise. No contest, like bringing a knife to a gunfight.

in terms of fuel miledge if i can get 10min on the nova would i get like 9 min on the rb?

I run a different version of the B10. A Murnan modded C6 USA. I can pit at 10 min in buggy with it.

My Mugen weighs in at 3083g including the advertised weight of the B10 with no fuel and no pipe (don't know the weight of the 2045 pipe). Should i get a weighted fly wheel or is it not needed.

You should only need a weighted flywheel in buggy on a slippery track with an engine that has alot of bottom end power.

Nick411 11-22-2010 06:16 PM

Thanks, not needed for me then.

Nick411 11-28-2010 06:14 PM
