From past experience Picco engines run best with Picco plugs.

rho we just tested the new OFNA JL plugs and they also work very well in the Picco's...I doubt they will last as long, but they function very well... |

Well just over the 8 tank mark now and the engine is starting to come to life, still got a great idle and the rev range is starting show, changed out the picco 2046 pipe as i feel its choking the engine and fitted the alpha 0801 pipe and the engine changed thats for sure....more fuel going through the engine this week end so will keep you posted
|
Our first race tomorrow with it, I'm going to try a few pipes tomorrow keen to see what OS 2060 & 2050 will do to the engine. Interesting on what you said about the Picco 2046 choking the engine Sam we are up around the 10 tanks the engine still is very tight on the box with out heat... We are trying the 6mm tomorrow...
|
Go for the 2060 out of the two, the 2050 choke the top-end badly, that is if it's anything similar to a jpx.21.

I was surprised on my last two picco's they performed great on non-picco plugs:
I had A powerhouse .28 when I bought it the engine had a novarossi 7t plug in it great all around performance and purred on the idle(to much motor for me though) 2nd Was my PTM Basic Picco 3pt motor I ran RB/NOVA 6 plugs in it same thing..plenty of power and a great low idle. |
I think the whole point of this motor is to be smooth and get great fuel mileage with the picco 2046. I think you guys are looking for more than this 3 port will give and by changing pipes before you have even raced the motor is :weird::weird::confused:. Can some one race the motor first with the 2046 and test for fuel mileage, that is what I am after. Thanks, I can't wait to read your race reports regardless of what pipe you run but I would love to know the fuel mileage with the picco pipe. Thanks

Well got another litre through the engine today and the engine is screaming in the truggy thats for sure, i also run the jammin 21 plus engine and boost is running on a close par thats for sure, run times will be tested in due time thats for sure but i wont hit the track with it until the mech pinch as all but gone....i have learned my lesson and with 3 other engines to choose from im in no hurry thats for sure....the picco 2046 pipe is an extrelely thin pipe that dents very easily, i tryed running one on my picco 21 plus and didnt like the pipe that much so im sure i will track test the boost package in the future but for now im happy with other pipes i have to run with it....

We ran ours today in race conditions and was very happy with the run times and performance the Picco came alive more as the day went on. We run the 6mm insert in the 808 and it was getting just over 10min, this was grass racing tho which uses more fuel as the engine has to work a bit harder. Defiantly a great mill for the buggy for sure. we run the Picco 2046 and was happy with pipe so dident try any thing else.......

Get-em while you can I'm showing 25 left in stock as of today and Nitrohouse gets them direct from us and I'm not sure if we are getting anymore before the Picco goes on vaction for a month.

Already got mine just haven't put it on

Wow this engine is nice, a cool set of Boost decals, blue sets of gasket, nice polished pipe and header and finnaly smaller venturi as an option, the only thing it doesn't come with is a plug so make sure you purchase some plugs.
