Aloha, well I was talking about the stock Delorto carb. It seemed odd that it came with such a lean jet. I am using larger polini reed block and now ram air ...
Aloha, everyone. Anyone ported the exhaust on their 172? Not so much in the cylinder, but more around the size of the port going into the J pipe? I have opened...
Hi Frank,<br><br>I was told by PM tuning not to touch the exhaust port as it goes into the J pipe/front pipe as it can reduce the power of the engine and cause...
Aloha, I spoke with Terry at Taffspeed and it seems they have not messed around with the porting in this area. If PM has experience with it and says it will...
Aloha<br>Got a pix of mufflers inside. Tried several times to up it, but no success. Tried both the default and a new album, but no.. I’m on wireless ADSL ...
Err, yes, they (Tafspeed) should have done the "Exhaust port" porting ! Its been nearly 5,000 miles since the "porting" on the cylinder was done, I have not ...
Turbalence? There was a report in the Motocross world a couple of weeks ago where a KTM 125 (very good 125 MX bike) was tested with different exhausts. Cut a...
Aloha, Thanks to drebin_drag180 for the pix of the innards of the muffler. Sure is interesting, I posted it to the photo section of "Hawaii Trike"<br>Cheers...
Aloha, Pieman. I was reviewing the scootering trial of pipes for the 180 and they really conclude the Stoffi is the best bet. I thought you were going to try ...
Hi Frank, its Bloody cold here this morning, whats the temperature like with you ?<br><br>Personaly I think the Scootering Test is very misleading as it is a...
Aloha, Pieman. 78 degrees here...a bit cold. I might have to take a long sleeve shirt when I go to the beach this evening. :) <br>I agree that the test in ...
Almost the same temperature as here, only we are 7+8 = 15 degrees ! You must try and get some Scenic photos with your excellent Trike in to show us your ...
Aloha, Pieman. Yes, don't misunderstand me, weights are the key for "dialing" in your power range/versus weight/versus driving conditions, hills, etc. But it...
Hello good people out there in 172 country...<br><br>There's always been a question I needed to ask about "squash"....<br><br>The PMTuning Billethead that give...
Aloha, dragster. Cheapest thing that will give you more bottom end is an extra washer between pulley face and boss. But you have to do it with extreem care!!...
Changed the rings today as they had been on for nearly 5000 miles. There was not alot of wear however, a gap of .4 on the top ring and .35 on the bottom one, ...
Any one fitted a Boost Bottle ? <br>How many miles has it done ? <br>Any problems ? <br>Where did you mount it to, the inlet manifold ?<br><br>I have just...
Hi everybody;<br>I answered a little bit late may be. I don't know the meaning of stone(what is in the kilogram?).<br>But I have 75kilos, on the flat, I can...
Hi Dear friends,<br>In Turkey it is too hard to make some modification on the scooters, because we can't find easily the parts that we needed. But I have a...
All,<br><br>May I take it that my question on piston to head clearance is too difficult to answer as no one's commented yet ?<br><br>Please see attached...
Aloha, you can tighten up your squish as long as you keep your compression down. I am running low compression now (10:1) with .052 (wide stock 180cc setup) ...
Thanks for the reply....<br><br>I had not seen that web page, and yes it looks like 1 mm is the minimum clearance, which could go someway in explaning why my...
Aloha, even less squish can be ok if it does not raise the compression too high and detonate and blow seals, etc. It depends upon the volume of the combustion ...
