just got my 0801 pipe today already on the buggy and i ran a tank with it sounds and runs great. I have it on the 7 port turbo. I also got my 3 port race today also. I was running the 7 port with a os 2050 and i thought that it ran great what kind of differences should i see with the 0801 pipe. Also wondering the biggest difference between the 3 port race and the 7 port turbo. Both of my engines are the 08 version. thanks guys.

well i ran the buggy some today ran like pooh and would lean bog. i know its not a tank issue because its done it in 3 different cars
so i was going to pull the carb but i figured why not try the novarossi low end needle which was recommended. welll it worked the engine runs really strong throughout the power band so my mysterious bog issues are gone
thanks to all the helped

nope it was a bad needle for some odd reason some of the needles thin out too much and cause tuning nightmares
thats what i think it is
i checked the orings after i removed it and they look like new so i dont think that was it

I have been having the same issues. I try to lean the HSN but it bogs when I pull the trigger to WOT. I richened the HSN back up and the bog went away. The engine is running really rich with a lot of smoke and unburned fuel coming out of the 086 pipe.
Where can I get the novarossi needles?

Hey cheese, glad to see you got it sorted bro
Things like that can be really frustrating huh ??
I have been really lucky with my Go engines. Not one problem, which was just as well, as I am still fairly new at this game. Got a pretty good handle on tuning these little buggers now, but something like that would have really thrown me a curve ball

I have been a Die Hard OS Vspec 21 w/ 2050 pipe fan for the last 2 years. After this weekend I am a believer in Go Technology. Brian Carey w/Pro Twister Mods hooked me up w/ one of his 7 port Go motors w/ the Go Tech 0801 polished pipe. Awesome power combo. Stronger and more linear than my Vspec, and hold a very good low idle. I run OS P3 plugw/ Rocket Science 30%. If anyone has had reservations about these mills (as I have), fear not the Go Tech stuff is VERY STRONG.

Hi All,
I desperately need your help. My Go 3 P R, is not getting hot at all. Down the front straight its like watching grass grow, Buggies are whooping my behind. The following things I have tried without success:
Changed fuel line
Changed fuel filter
Sealed back plate & Carb
Changed carb to OS
Changed clutch from Fioroni slider to standard clutch, carbon shoes with 1.1 springs
Changed all exhaust seals
Changed all exhaust springs
Purchased a new buggy one of lighter buggies on the market, thus new fuel tank ect, ect
Problem:
The engine is almost spitting fuel, lean top end =too lean, starts to bog, back out top end, lean bottom end, I loose considerable amount of top end, down the straight you can literally make your self a cup of tea. Also engine is still tight, lock up top.
My possible solution:
Race with aluminium foil around head and try and get some heat, thus hopefully losing some of the pinch.
Note, I don’t usually use a temp gun last time I used 1 borrowed from friend, I was told brand X was notorious for false temps. I use spit and sizzle, when I spit on the head the spit just sits there, also tried pinch tech to check bottom end it’s slightly lean 3-4 seconds cuts out. I use the Ron Paris method of tuning all my engines. This motor has me completely fooled.
Thanks for all your help.
