The guy at my LHS tells me that the EFRA 2015 pipe is the new hot ticket. What are the characteristics if that pipe. Also I am pitting together a Losi 8 2.0. I am planning on getting a plus 4. I mostly will be racing at revelation in So Cal which is a pretty big track. What pipe and header would YOU recommend, also with the so cal weather what plug, 77T ?
i would personally run 9886/41021 header at REV
in the buggy anyway, in the truggy i like 9853SS/41005

On you Site, for the caption for the 9886 you say that it get 15% less runtime than the 9853. It wouldn't be better to get the 9853 for the buggy. Thank you for all of your input and quickness of response for this. Also what month do you plan on getting race tuned option on your site. Permitting weather in Oregon

as far as the "R2R" service back on the website i am not sure on an exact date but hopefully february or so . rain is not a good situation for a break in

i like to break the engines in a car so when you guys get the engines you are very very close to a race tune the first time on the track

happy motorin',

Hi Monty.
Could you elaborate on the carb difference on the new and old carbs? i saw when we get the +4 that the low end needle is longer than the old carbs of the P5 engines.
Or do i misunderstand and there are two different carbs on the + 4 engines?..
In my mind, one of the reassons that OS had good fuel consumtion and easy tune engines it the stye of their very long low end needel.
Could you ship engines to Norway? Possible one +4 and one +4c?

Yes I can ship to norway but shipping will be charged as actual shipping amount added on to the engine price .

I think that most are experiencing a little less runtime because they are pulling the trigger more . By all rights they should be getting better fuel mileage IMO

Thanks,
ofcourse the shippingprice will add on the engineprice :-)
Are the newer carbs only +4c or also the +4
As far as pulling the trigger alittle moore, maybe i just get the standard +4 and make some timing changes to he crank to gett the better response, usually i can make the engines i have to use little les fuel than standard anyway.

For 25$ it is a very worthy upgrade
The timing on the crank intake is the same between these two , oh and there is a C on the plus 4 C head :-)
