your products look pretty good joe , the airseal is a great product to use on the non-novarossi engines and the air filters look pretty darn good bro .

Do you also feel the engine is smooth ?

I would like to try your products but you don't make filters for the hobao filter . I love that filter , lots of surface area .

I'm always looking to add to the filter line, but hobao isn't in the works yet.

i was just being a smartass

novarossi engines are well designed and dont need airseal , if they have an airleak they usually only need new orings . that is of course unless you have a cracked case or a really bad front bearing .


rb engines arent made by novarossi anymore at least not their offroad engines
