Ruune is now the US importer/distributor of GO Engine. His name is Trey.
Trey supplies the GO DEALERS in the US.

I'm not sure which forum you speak of. But at Truggy Racer's.com Ruune moderated the Cen thread. I don't know if that's Trey or not, but they're both from Texas.

Thanks for your help, i am fairly new to Nitro and this long needle short needle thing never heard of,

just to reiterate my LSN leaves the jet by 1mm only at WOT it is needle shaped and this is short needle. (this sounds OK?)

Sorry for the trouble, just running in and tuning will be challenging enough without the trouble of cooking an engine.

Dave - there is a picture of the two different needles I posted half way down page 682. Also go back and read the discussion re short and long needles on pages 676, 677 and 678. That should explain all you need to know.
Tuning tips for the long needle if you have one can be found on the Tech Tips page of www.go-racing.co.nz
Hope this helps

Thanks for your help, the engine i have is the following R2500-M20HSG (in case another nitro newbie asks the same question) and thankfully for me has a short needle.

With the turbo head you should be running the 1 x alloy .3mm shim and the 2 x very thin .1mm copper shims for a total of .5mm of actual shims.
The other thicker .2mm shim is the "break in shim" used for lowering the compression when running the motor in for the first few litres.
