I live in Team Losi driver land... I built my 350 exactly the way they recommended and the motor comes to life...
Use the Turbo head conversion, the instructions tell you which shims to use and add the RE11 pipe. I read plenty here that say no to the RE11, but when one of the team drivers is waiting for a new Novarossi, thats what they run and it flies. I get right on 10 minutes... which means I pit at 9 mins comfortably.
Even 10 is short around here... Kinwald goes 15 without any trouble with his Novarossi.
