Got to run my clicked bonito today in my mbx5t and its a monster,pulled that truggy with ease and was faster top and bottom than my JL red dot picco .28 and I'm using a jp3 pipe.
I'm sure with a 086 its gonna be even faster and no high revvs before settling down to idle,seems like it has a air leak for a minute then calms down to a proper idle,is that normal? Maybe just the pipe?
I used neals clutch break in tech and it worked like a charm,grabs nice and smooth.
As soon as I can get some video I'll post a link.
Thanks again neal and john,I'm one happy dude.

High idle means your idle gap is too big...... have you adjusted the idle gap any ?

By idle gap you mean the idle adjustment screw? Of so then yes I have I closed the gap to lower it but I get that high idle just after throttle.
I can take some video and post it?

its your idle gap, or you linkage holding the idle open....not a airleak...... trust me !!
No need to video...however you should dial me up and I can give you a little tuning primer......
also its normal for a new engine to high idle a little coming off throttle......new engines require a larger idle gap and due to that the engine will want to high idle a little coming down off throttle
Also the JP3 tends to enhance that high idle effect on some engines.....

Hey,
we ran our clocked Bonito yesterday the first time.
The engine runs really well.
It is still a little rich but it only has about 1 litre through it.

Runtimes of 9 minutes on the track with the Nova 2096 pipe.
It was the first time that we run the new Team C T8T too.

What clutch ? what fuel, what plug ?

I have learned a lot from phone chats with Neal. He has always been spot on too.

Man cre line is doing super good so much talk and interest I get alot of pm's asking questions asking for feedback . I wouldn't recommend something I didn't like nor believe in simple awesome the bonito is a truly a awesome mill I firmly believe it's the best mill someone could buy if their able to funds also my P5 is another great option the best part anyone could buy . Want to thanks Neil and Jon for their support their mills blow my speeds away and I've been a die hard OS guy for a long time I actually look forward to sundays

I'll shoot you a call tomorrow.
I checked the linkage and adjusted it a little and made sure its free and closes and opens the carb smoothly.
I ran another tank today and it still does the high idle but about a quarter tank left it was doing it less and less so it seems like I just need to get a few more tanks thru it and wait for warm days because its been in the 40s and I don't have a heat sink cover so when I get to top speed it cools down to 150-160 and fattens up.
Thanks for your help and his awesome engine.
