Cleaning the OS 12 TR
 

Just got the engine but it accidently fell in a bucked of sand. How do you fully clean this engine out? Really don't want to take it apart. Can we just pour some liquid through it and thoroughly clean it that way?

:lol: Bucket of sand?? lol

I would just spray it out with wd 40 really good. Have fun!

bucket of sand!How?

Just accidently tipped it over on the table and landed in the bucket. I was planning to start breaking it in. Talk about bad luck.

you dont say!! If i was you i would take the engine completly apart just to be sure.

I was afraid you'll say that!

it sucks but better been safe than sorry!!

You will have to take the engine apart to be on the safe side, the .12TR is an easy engine to rebuild. Just use denatured alcohol
and soke the engine, re-oil. Check closely for any sand grauals in the engine.:D

Also you will have to pull the bearings. if you have any futher trouble call Hobby Services at 217-398-8970.

Hyper Head
 

Well I finally got around to installing the Hyper head on my TR-T. I must say it's quite an improvement! I was only able to lean the motor out a few small moves before I ran out of sunlight but I can already see a good improvement with this head.
What would be a good pipe to run with this engine/ head on a NTC3? This car will be mainly for bashing but MIGHT see some track time too....
I've heard the RDL pipe is a good choice but what about the OS? I'm mainly looking for low to mid end power!

How much faster is this T-spec realisticly. I need to buy an Engine for nats and im just interested to know.

Hello from France,

The best exhaust I test is the Mielke Inline exhaust.

Mielke exhaust

I test Rd Logics ( Turbo or not ) , but the meilke is better.

that is the team crc exhaust right?

Do you have a source for that pipe? I'd like to give it a try. Thanks

romuald31,

What shocks are you using? That looks lia a NTC3 right?
