I have no idea how it compares to the old Mugen grease you liked but it seems to work very well for me.

Losi also has a thicker version that they call hi-pressure grease.

Question: I have a pair of brand new MTEs and I noticed that they have four shims between the sleeve and the head button. Two aluminium (thin) and two copper (thick). Is this setup for 30% nitro? If I run 20% nitro can I remove one of the thin aluminium shims to gain power/efficiency?

Thanks and congrats on your and Cody's accomplishment!
Thanks very much. Yes, if you are running 30% nitro with your current head clearance, and it's running fine (no detonation) you should be able to remove one small shim and run 20% nitro with no trouble.
