What would be a good plug for a NSR12S5? Hot or cold? And a good brand? I'm used to using a O'donnell standard plug, but have no real clue with this turbo thing...
I'm also in the middle of tuning the engine. I think I have quite a bit to go to lean it out. It barely temps at 200 F. I know it has to get warmer than that. It seems to bog right around the mid range before picking back up, so I'm sure I have to tighhten the low end up a little more. It does have a strange habit of shutting off right around 1/4 tank, though. Not sure about that. Unfortunately, it's usually 1/2 way across the track so I can't get a good read on the temp when it dies. 90% of the time it fires right back up.

What tuned pipe to use with N12LS3?
Hi guys,
Did anyone of you try different tuned pipes for N12LS3? I am using the Novarossi Tuned pipe set NRS-52607 for this engine and would like to know if I can achieve better results with another set. Thanks for the help in advance.

RR12 L5
Hi,
Anyone has experience here wth RR12 L5?
I am using Trinity Monster 25% with Nova t6 plug. And I am having some problem tuning the engine. It dies off ever time I hit the throttle.
Did tried to set the high end richer, but no help.
Thanks,

If it dies on full throttle, maybe it's still too rich on the HSN.

Unfortunately, all the needles has been turn, one way or the other.
They try to lean the mid range too. I think the engine get over heated and I saw a bulk of white smoke puff off the exhaust.
jjmudd, if you could please let me know your settings for the high end and low end needle.
Hope to trouble shoot it.

try switching fuels......I was the biggest fan of Wildcat/trinity fuels.....but could not get my RB 's or nova's to run on take off..I tried for 2 years to get consistant running.......just for a goof,I tried Sidewinder....I mean instantly,no more problem.........I remember talking to Jerry Connely at Wildcat.....he told me the beanoil that they get from Klotz is thicker..and depending on the porting of the engine,can sometimes be a problem to tune when it comes to throttle transition(read: car stalling on takeoff..)...I got that advice from him when I was trying to use wildcat in a TRX 15 motor...I guess it followed through for nova engines also....
Sidewinder World Championship 30% is what I was using.....I've since switched to Maxys'...very good fuel also..
don't forget to return your needle settings to stock position.....like you were breaking in the motor again...and tune from there....
