ahhhh
thanks guys. that makes sense. So the bent short header gives it more top end and balances out the mid pipe, while the 86 pipe likes the round headers. Great stuff. I have all of that, just used in the wrong combo. thanks again.....

Clutch springs... Anyone have a clutch suggestion for the p5xlt motor in a truggy. I think I have narrowed found my pipe and header combo thanks to everyone's input especially Huston
, but am still looking for a direction to go clutch spring wise. I use a all mugen clutch, if that has any affect of what springs to use.

I would start with 1.0 springs and stock Mugen shoes, if you want more punch and the track can handle the power go to a 1.1 spring, and I have been using Dynamite Max Life shoes the past 2 gals and they still look and work like new so I might not use Mugen shoes anymore!

definitely worth a shot

Mugen
Mugen has the best clutch setup in the business, in my opinion. I like their carbon black clutch shoes with the 1.0 springs with most every engine, but the p5 has so much torque the alluminum shoes are overkill. the carbon shoes last forever and don't eat into the clutch bell and overheat the springs like the all ones do...Just try it, and you will see. I use the mugen shoes on every car and clutch setup with kyosho 1.0 springs, but if you have a mugen setup use all mugen stuff....

The FMS is a wicked piece but nothing alittle mod work on the P5 can't fix. The milage are pretty comparable on both engines but that will also depend on all the variables that go into the engines overall performance ie: pipe, tune, clutching, gearing, conditions, weight of vehicle, throttle discipline etc. For what you would pay for a stock FMS, you can have my full race ported version of the P5 which will run very strong, get over 10 minutes with the proper setup and will last into the 10+ gallon range if taken care of properly.
average runtime for a FMS with proper setup
