No Offense intended toward psychoB4 at all, but he could be driving on the throttle a little to much too.. I've noticed I loose anywhere from 1-3 minutes depending on how hard I am driving.. Obviously the harder I drive it the lower the run time gets.. Only a few engines like the low 200 range, most are sirio based.. I run a Extech .24 on my truggy and it stays around 200 most of the time, and I get near 12 minutes w/JP6 pipe. But I have run it dry in 8.5minutes before.. I was driving really hard and was upside down more than usual..

the jx runs colder then the vspec. I had the same problem for a long time until i realized it was not a problem. One of the best drivers in my area runs nothing but jx's and he temps about 175 after a main. I think it has something to do with that oversized block or lightened cooling head. I would always try to lean it out to get it hotter, DONT! You will ruin your engine.
If anything go in on your LSN but anything more then 3 1/8 is getting too lean.

Very true Buddy and NO offense taken. I drive my Buggy hard, and really I try to drift it around most turns. The Losi rear is so light and soft that I can throw the weight around like my drift car. thats how I been driving me buggy hahaha. But If I drove my buggy harder MRC, wouldnt that bring the temps up also??
I have to time myself this weeknd see how many mins Im getting per tank.

everything is about air flow in these little engines. The silicon ramp, rounding off the bottom of the sleeve, the fangs on the ports etc.

if you have a jx, speed or vspec the 7 is money.

Yes you will have to re-tune. That is in fact the purpose of a venturi. Running a smaller venturi will require a leaner setting, thus it will give you better runtime. The smaller the venturi the better the runtime, but the lesser the top end of the engine(bottom end is not affected much). If you find you can sacrifice a bit of top speed, running a smaller venturi will get you more mileage.
