yea i dont like the postion that the s5 carb its a pain to adjust the idle without hitting the flywheel lol.

You're kidding? Don't get me wrong the nova has done well in buggy, great fuel mileage and adequate power, but the B10 will kill the nova power wise. No contest, like bringing a knife to a gunfight.

My Mugen weighs in at 3083g including the advertised weight of the B10 with no fuel and no pipe (don't know the weight of the 2045 pipe). Should i get a weighted fly wheel or is it not needed.

You should only need a weighted flywheel in buggy on a slippery track with an engine that has alot of bottom end power.
