What glowplugs are you running in your D5's? Are OS P3 ok?
Thanks!

Yes p3 or R3

i now run a Z852, they come with a long needle AND a spare short one, the carbs are fine... its just people dont know how to use them properly

hey guys,
i just bought this engine, still waiting by the mail box. anyway, what are your thoughts on running the D5 with JP1, JP4, OS2060 or ofna 086 pipes? i will be running it in a truggy.
or maybe someone could recommend a better pipe for the engine. not really keen on buying another pipe, but if the benefit outweigh the cost then why not.

Currently im running an OS28 in my truggy and its retarded fast but i can barely push 8mins. will be interesting to see how the D5 stack up.

cheers,
Moe

Let me know how it goes with the JP4 as I have one laying around basically

Does somebody have any new experience with the Go 2072 or 2047 pipes or some other pipes?

Guys,

As with most engines all pipes will work well when tuned proper. The reason the 0801 seems to be the best combo with this engine is that offers both good torque and top end along with great milage.

But if you get better results with another pipe please do post... I have tested an 086 and 2053 and the 0801 seemed to just give me the best all around engine.

2035 with short header is butter smooth

In the championship I drive I have to use a pipe with an EFRA-Code. Which of the EFRA pipes is the best one to choose. Seems that the 2081 is ok, is there an alternative?

better in what way?

Hey guys, just got the d5. broke it in with 20%

Do you guys shim the head for 30% or run it as it is?

Thanks

I never touched the shims when I ran 30%, I did replace the carb orings after a couple gallons as the original ones broke down pretty quick.

Dynamite 053 or the 0801 are the pipes to get for this motor in my opinion. The 2013 pipe if you are looking for crazy power. Lol

have you even ran this engine?

had my first race with the d5....I must say I am impressed. I have run go, o.s, werks, nova, and mugen motors and i think this motor is very competetive. Longevity will be something we see over time, however this engine produces great power and it is Easy to tune. I cant wait till her legs come out
