I looked for this thread but I could not find one....so lets get it going on all Nova Offroad engines...

i will start with the engine i am just breaking in..a new p5XLT..so far it is really responsive and still has the strong bottom they are known for..right now i am using a 9901 with short header...i forgot how good this engine was.

Hey R1harper what's your most favorite Nova engine?

There is a thread you can ask your questions on here already . Everyone else does.

Fav nova engine of all time is probably the p5 or one I have worked over .

2nd fav is plus 4 C


Truggy - plus 21-7bt or plus 21-8t :-)


Btw , killer thread harper !! :-)

All engines with ceramic bearings naturally :-)

i havnt ever ran a bad nova

i have..
1- plus 21-5.
1- plus 21-5k
2 -rex p5
2 -nova p5x.
1-top 5 port.
1-top 421b.
1 -367.
1- .12 top S5.
1-rb .28 728
my favorite is the 421 next are the p5's,
the 367 is no slouch either.
would love to have the fms 7 port.

I have

1 P5xs
1 21-5k
2 21-7 FMS
1 NR.12S3
I was going to buy a Plus-4C but I was so impressed with the FMS I bought
another one. The P5xs seemed to lack bottom-end, but I only ran it with the
9886/41021 combo. When I get it repinched I'll run the 9853. The FMS for me
is the hands down bomb!

I have ran quite a few Novas, I like the 21-4 hands down.....last season I Used a Ofna 053 pipeset and it was great, I am going to try a 9901/41021 this season for buggy.......nice thread Harper

i ran a Novarossi N21BF Limited Edition .21 Off Road 3 Port Buggy Engine (Standard Plug) that monty from houston engines modded for me. it had all the power i needed to do whatever i wanted. i even ran down my buddies ninja jx21 down the straight with it but most importantly the engine never flamed out on me the whole season!!!

by far the best bang for the dollar engine ever made! can't wait to get the new one

buggy -plus 4
truggy- FMS

the P5 i just got is coming along real nice, and the way it is feeling i may try it in truggy to see how it does. really you cant count out the little BF 21 limited..it is a really nice package for the price

the first thing i really noticed about the New P5 is it used the old carb. It took me a little bit to ge used to the needles again. where the plus 4 is flush on the LSN the P5 is up in there LOL. i may just put a new one on there and see what happens.

oh and thanks about the thread...the On-road guys had one...so now we do

anyone know if there will be a SS 086? i got the 9901 and 053 now waiting for the 086...

Can anybody tell me the best plug to run in a plus 21-5K running 30% byrons and a pipe header combo for a short track. I have a mugen 1005 pipe combo and wanted to know should I stick with it or is there some thing better.
Thanks for any help
