Monty,

can you comment on the "sport" line of odo plugs? the reds purples and pink with green dot ones :D How different are they from the usual "race" plugs a la 77, 97, 100 and such?

Thanks,
Paul

I would if I have tried them paul , I have payed attention to them but am not gonna carry them as the other plugs seem to work very well . I don't think they are made in the same factory though so that could be a determining factor on why I Don't use them even though I am sure they are fine

what restrictor did you use

Sorry, I used the 7.5mm. For some reason I left the 8.0's at home.

ok thx.. that what i was going to use this weekend

I really wish I could've finished that race. I would like to know the mileage with the 7.5mm. I'll put the 8.0 for my next race. I must drive efficiently cause my +4 can pit at 12 minutes on a regular basis. AT the Futaba challenge the mileage was down but I found the front bearing to be leaking and I didn't find it till I tried tune the engine for 20 minutes. I used to use a GRP .21 Tuned in my truggy and it too would go 11 minute pit stops every....single....time. It was awesome.

So I have no doubts the FMS will go 10 minutes. I just want to verify it. LOL.

yes he does,

he uses Byron gen 2 fuel and break in the engine using the heat cycle method on a real car and running on a real track for about 1/2 a gallon and NOT on a bench :D

hope this helps

cheers

Just in case anyone is still interested in my N21R trials and tribulations.

I tried the 9901 + 41030 and 41021 (sorry, won't buy 005 header...) again this weekend, to no avail. The mill simply refuses to rev properly, and is a low-rpm dog, no matter how hard and what I try. When cranking out max HP (ie not much) it will easily temp 270F on my newly received exergen (hurray!) and keep climbing, if I richen it it just sounds wrong and is a turd in the straight. There is no way any different header could add that much low- or hi-rpm HP, so I will simply conclude that 9901+N21R is anything but the hot ticket at least on my mill.

During the same practice session, I also swapped pipes in 3mn back to the "standard" 086HS, using same fuel, same plug, same filter, same weather, same clutch, just swapping exhausts - this is litterally night and day, suddenly the engine lives, is stable, not overheating, not stalling, it's nice nice nice, a real $135 treat :)

what, again, is stunning me is that my buddy's N21BF is a screamer with 9901+41030 so either NR's QA has some serious slack in their process, or there is more changes from the N21BF to N21R than sees the eye... :weird::weird::weird:

I'm done with testing now :ha: Overall I'm happy with the 086HS, so it's now and forever my N21R's official exhaust. Screw runtime, I'd rather have the car drive like it should than -maybe- get 10mn+ refills and not be able to clear the jumps...

N21R + 086HS = Nice little <$200 combo

Paul
