how much differance is there between the ofna 086 pipe set and the nova 9886/41001 or 9886/41021 on a clocked bonito?

will the clocked roma most likely use these same pipes?

Lol, I thought I heard something as I drove past on Kenaston! That looks like a nice powerplant.....as slick as the road was, it still looked like it wanted to point the nose at the sky.

I can say right now this engine has a big bottom end...even geared up 1 tooth and running Badland MT tires it is badass off the bottom.....Seems like its going to scream real well on top end too.... However today was a rough tune and I didn't really stretch the top end much...... probably could pull even 1 more tooth on the gear

Sweet cant wait to get my hands on one just hope ur mod will still get the 15 minutes the team drivers are getting !
I do have question as I see u have video of the 21-7 fms
What kind of run time u getting? I had a 7.5 Venturi on it and only got 7 minutes which is unacceptable in today's market in a truggy
I have 2 and they are the fastest engines I ever ran and I own 2 which in my buggy I'm playing with a 6.5 venturi but if it doesn't get in the 9 minute range I will have to put the os speed in to compete
Thank you for any help and please let me know wen Roma's will be available as I'm dying to get one from you

Unfortunately my Roma is not going to get 15 minutes.....and I do not believe anyone Else's is going to either, stock or modified.... and if they do, they are going to have a very short lifespan...you would have to run a .25 dangerously lean to be able to run 15 minutes/tank at a top Pro's pace.....

I am not sure how the FMS was on fuel....it did run quite nice, and Cory did win the main driving it.....2011 Canadian RC Pro Truggy champ !!!........I will say tho that these days we have much stronger ,faster and more efficient engines then the FMS....Even my regular mod B5 and P5 will make more power and RPM, my Bonito is on a totally different planet........

I would love to do you an engine, but there is no way I am going to promise anywhere near 15 minutes runtime from my Roma......

the pipes are quite similar...I do notice the OFNA is louder... the Nova has mre of a whine on top end.......The Roma definitely likes the 086 type pipes...it has massive amounts of bottom end, even on the 086.....
