standard odonnell 77 or mccoy mc8 , turbo odonnell 77 or 97

i am pretty sure the novarossi plugs are good now , i will be testing them out shortly .

just put the 2 pipe combos i recommend in your pit box and you will have all the pipes you will need
novarossi 9853 w/ 41001 or 41005 , 9886 w/ 41021 or 41020 novarossi are the best performing hands down
ofna 053 , ofna 086 w/jammin medium round header

the dynamite pipes are great with excellent durability factor but the ofna pipes perform a touch better

053 pipes seem quite popular with p5x and many other mills.
Most often mentioned is the dynamite and ofna pipe (as a Novarossi original alternative).
How will a GRP 053 pipe hold up, compared to the other 053 pipes?
I have one, and I believe it to be the best alternative compared to my other pipes (jp2, jp4).

Any advice?

Monty I got my Plus 4 thanks.

Has anyone filled the plus 4 crank? It looks like it would work good.

Monty whats your thoughts on Ceramic bearings in mills, front and rear? I just put front and rear TKO's in 1 of my mills and asked around and am getting mixed opinions and stories good and bad.

ok cool so the 9901 is the hot choice for power would the short smooth flow header do the trick on both motors so theoreticly the 3005 sicne not performing power wise should be better on fuel??. also i was looking up about the plus 4 and found that the head button setups different to the Toro it dont have the new rubber seal type, why i ask is the toro i got was the standard plug version and i was thinking down the track to convert it to turbo now since the +4 im buying is going to be the standard head version and i want to convert that as well now i cant find what part number the new 09 version which come's with both use's so i was thinking is it possible to use the setup that comes with the Toro Neo T is it possible to run the rubber seal style head button on the +4

Ok, what header do you recomend?
Any advice for a multi-role pipe, euro-style tracks (short, smaller jumps, more twisty)
For my current p5x, but also for the future (+4 and perhaps a N21BF).
Prefeably efra aproved.

efra legal pipes ? i dont need to play with those much here in the us so i dont really have alot of testing results to dish out . sorry casevac
the 9901 performs much like the 53 and i am pretty sure its legal ?

the 41001 or 41005 headers for 9853 but they will not work with the grp qwik connect system
