Well... I need some extra hot turbo plugs for my low nitro fuel. I've a hard time finding Sirio S5 turbo plugs (a normal glowdriver burns them up in a second! ).
Do you have anything hotter than O´Donnell 77T?

No lil bror, that's the hottest plug offereed from odonnell for turbo . Its a pretty hot plug actually , I have no experience with the sirio plugs so I don't know their heat ranges and what to compare . Odonnell plugs use a pretty open orifice design and compensate with different (bigger gauge) wire to create the heat range. I feel it works pretty well or I wouldn't recommend them. :-)

Thanks Monty.
I'll get back to you, if I can't find any Sirio. I'm in contact with a RC shop in New Zeeland right now

Rain in the forecast , I am 100% sure that this clutch will be awesome though!!!

Anybody thinking about buying one , shouldn't hesitate !!!

Are you guys gonna offer different clutch materials ? Like a carbon shoe , 7075 and 6061 material ? Just curious.
