What differences will I see? I know I'll need to retune, but will I need to change my glow plug?

Thanks.
You may need to re-shim the head button. Not all engines come shimmed for 30% Nitro. Check with a GO-PRO to be sure. Glow plug change not required. You will see increased Power and more constant idle at the sacrifice of some run time
