41001 to clear jumps, and 41005 to REALLY clear jumps.
With 41029 I always thought BTT was a bit limp, but now it's a different thing alltogether.
Just so you know Neal is a professional engine guy and has never told me information that was even close to being wrong. I'm not saying you should do this or that with pipes. By all means run what makes you happy. I can tell you this. The 41001 header certainly helps, but the 2096 is technically a 3 chambered pipe like the 9901 and they are smoother than other 2 chambered pipes like the 9886 2058 9853 etc... Neal has tried to answer your questions so you might just pay attention instead of trying to counter his help. He is a super nice guy. We are all on here to help. Have a nice day.

Just for the record, the 2058 is an EFRA legal 3 chamber pipe


A BTT engine perform very well with that pipe.

Most guys just a basher so how the pipe perform is just another opinion. So just take it s a reference, different driving style etc... Use wat u think is the best n share opinion but not insisting. Hope it helps

Hi guys,

I have a new Novarossi Plus 12-3SCT Tuned engine and am tossing up which pipe to install. The track I race on is small, tight and twisty so I'm deciding whether to buy an O.S. T-1050SC L52 (which is supposedly suited to the lower rev range) or a Novarossi 51610. Any suggestions? I'm happy to hear other brand/pipe suggestions to go with my engine as well.

Cheers,
Mick

Glad to report my Btta has panned out. I feel like such a newbie lol. Replaced my front bearing, ran two tanks, flawless. Took a break, changed shock oil, got back on the track, flame outs started again. Put in a new ODO 97t, all flame outs went away for the rest of the day. I can't say that a new nova plug wouldn't have done the fix to. In the past as long as my plugs were firing my motors ran trouble free. Sometimes the little things get me.

You don't have to be afraid of using 25% nitro, its only a couple of mph and it depends on alot of factors. If you run shit fuel like jero glo etc.. i want say to much of the fuel that i mean is shit couse there are people here who use a lot of bad fuel, in many cases because their local hobby shop don't have anything else and it's easier to buy it there. I don't want to offend anyone. But there are 20 % fuel out there who will be stronger then some types 25 % nitro. I think you should think a lot more of the set up on your car like: The Clutch shoes, springs, flywheel, venturi, Manifolds, pipes, Clutcbells. It's a heck of things you can do to make your car go slower and faster without thinking about the nitro% and you dont need to reshim to go back to 20%, but stay away from bad fuel and the engine you got in your car..there is no problem to make the car go faster or slower with 25 % nitro. Relaxe use your 20 % nitro in the engine and maybe you have to tune the high speed needle leaner.

Imo use less lubricant say max 10%. As higher oil content will result in lean hsn which cause flame/bog with no power. Byron n O'Donnell among the best fuel out there.

Default Shim question

When in stalling the two silver .30 shims and the one copper .20 shim should the copper be sandwiched between two silver or should the copper be installed last so it's contacting the sleeve? I've been told conflicting things so I just want to get this cleared. All info would be appreciated

Hey guys, I have a Novarossi Plus4c that i got used supposedly with only 2 litres on the bench.

I'm breaking it in with a heat gun, competition heat, 30% VP Powermaster fuel and a OS P3 plug.

It idles fine but i can hear something like the Piston Knocking , never heard this strange noise before any ideas of what it might be?

Thanks.

Seems oddly over-dramatic. I don't see why a simply differently branded plug would have the possibility to destroy a differently branded engine. They're both turbo plug engines, what else can be different? I can understand why you might not get the most out of your engine with a differently branded plug, but to destroy it seems over the top...
