Pesaveng88 Member 23 Member For: 14y 4m 10d Posted 09/04/15 06:28 AM Posted 09/04/15 06:28 AM (edited) Can anyone confirm if this item or any similar item will fit so that I can use the standard plastic intake muffler. I already have a Plaz 3.5 delete pipe but reverted to the stock one as the sound of the stock intake pipe with my pw street intake sounds better without the metal muffler delete pipe.http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/4-3-5-REDUCER-BLACK-TURBO-INTAKE-SILICON-HOSE-/181656290933?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item2a4b8f0675Any help is appreciated.Jack Edited 09/04/15 06:30 AM by Pesaveng88

Around 40 bucks

Not that you'd ever want to starve your turbo of oil, its just that ceramic bearings would fail in a heartbeat in these conditions.

Not that you'd ever want to starve your turbo of oil, its just that ceramic bearings would fail in a heartbeat in these conditions.I'll beg to differ on this one as again in RC nitro engines once starved of oil (ie: lean mixtures) the ceramic is far superior as by the time the engine is so hot and ringing it's ass off the metal bearings get so hot that they literally melt the cage holding them together making it a total failure and generally a broken crankshaft. In the same situation the ceramic are much more tolerant of this using the same plastic cage so imo they simply don't get as hot!These are two separate bits of equipment (turbos vs 0.12-0.25cubic inch nitro motors) but the nitro spins at up to 40k and is purely dependant on enough fuel and not getting to hot as the fuel has the oil same as a 2 stroke and in my case it was always 6% castor oil and 6% synthetic (12% total!)...
