Yes have tried 2601 and 2630 with med and long headers but always went back to the mugen pipe for better all round performance much better bottom end more punch out of corners.

hi all,
from what i've seen, OS and picco here was really strong. im not sure about now

just curious if i should be getting one of the XZ or the TZ spec2? from what i read here, TZ last long while the XZ is still a question.

for me, the xz

easy tuning

btw, want to ask if the bearing on normal 12TZ can be used with 12tz spec2?

The bearing sizes are the same.

Internal bearing in the spec 2 was ceramic
same size as tz and spec 1

i race os speed xz with picco jl tuned, evo4 edo mod and its almost equal in performance. stock tz 3port was not that far off.
any os engine is easy to tune

own 2 of the speed version. tried with HEC turbo and jp2620, consumption is a bit more as compare to others. based on what i saw at local track, with the rite pipe such as t1050 and SAGE pipe,consumption and power wise shouldnt be a problem.
