i have tried both OS Speed & T. Shimo pipe. heres the result
OS Speed, the best is it save fuel so much even compared to 2630. but top end losses some power.
T. Shimo, overall was satisfactory, the reason for buying this pipe is because its stinger is only 5mm, which i assume plenty of back pressure. i still prefer this pipe over OS Speed, since T. Shimo is a little bit cheaper.

The port matching was definately worth the effort.
Crank was std with it silicone filled.

Anyone interested to try HEC pipe, let me know. The prototype I tested should be out in about 2 to 3 weeks so need to order now or contact Harmony. Not selling here, just want to share what I think works.

well, my os speed pipe was damaged, so i remove the manifold, cut the pipe down near the end, and use a 1/8 silicon exhaust coupler, thereby turning into 1pc (not inline), slightly longer than stock. power was totally different.

Spraying the nitro cleaner takes less time than trying to restart hot and it seemed to work everytime I tried it during a race. Give it a shot. You can try a Sirio evo3 carb as well since it's plastic shouldn't have the restart problem.
It is compressed with freon and will really cool the carb down.
Warning:
Do NOT spray on skin. Even through clothes it will leave a freezer burn for hours.

hmm, does anyone know which series of Palmaris is newer? the one with longer heatsink or the shorter one? oso, y both come with the same internal parts, and y both need to be modded to prevent oil from leaking? is palmaris still out there? or has it been replaced by Axial?
