Just a couple of questions guys: I fitted a turbo head button today and headed off to the track for a test run. Wicked
Temps were a little higher than usual so just wondering if this is tied up with the turbo button. I was running standard head with Go #5 plug before and running consistantly at 110 C at the end of a tank. Running LRP #6 with turbo head and ending tank at 120 C which is a little hotter than I would like (yeah I know temp means nothing, but I normally like to keep my engines below 120 C). I did hear these GO engines like to run a little warmer ??
Power with turbo plug was awesome by the way. Crisper response and lots of wheel stands off the jumps My friend was running an identical truggy with a .28 (not sure of make) and we were racing each other pretty hard from a full tank. He was consistantly running out of fuel when I had a quater tank left, plus I was blitzing him for power !! He is planning to get one as soon as he can. Got to love these GO engines
