I guess your tune is off man, most likely to start with your idle, I think it has a too big 'opening?' and therefore a too rich LSN. That way your engine will never be snappy.
The 2058 pipe should be right

But I'm wondering if what makes the most difference is the venturi. I recently went down from a 9mm to a 7.5 in an LRP 30 truggy engine, and it seemed to make a positive difference along the lines of what I want. I ran my RB Fire 11 (C5TGC, 2058) in my RC8.2 buggy last weekend, and it was definitely lacking in the feathery responsiveness I'm talking about. Anyway, I was just rummaging around, and found some other NR venturis - 8mm and 7mm. I've gone and put a 7mm in. So my questions are:
1.) What kind of performance difference can I expect?, and
2.) How will it affect the tune?
3.) I have a bunch of Picco venturis. They're shorter, but the width feels right. Can I use them? (I'd like to try a 7.5 first instead of the 7mm, but only have a 7.5mm Picco venturi..)
I actually don't care all that much about run-time. I just want power, but with that responsiveness and hair-trigger feel... Thanks.
