this things burns up spur gears. and its too lean. plus the idle is too high. i suggest starting it, warming it up, and turning the idle screw untill it cuts off. then turn it 1/16 the opposite way, it should be perfect.
@yurrm0mlikesrctrucks It was a little bit lean, but the idle was not too high. The pipe makes it high when the engine warm up. Also, I never broke a single spur gear!
You can use whatever process you want, i used the traxxas method and got 9 gallons out of my first picco only to break a rod due to me being dumb and over reving it. My second picco is going on about the same amount of fuel and still runs great and the compression still is enough to pick the truck up with the pullstart.
ya thats what i thought cuz its way to big of a motor to not make a difference well thanks for helping me with the info you sold me on it!!!! ya ill prob get one here soon seems how i sold my old 3.3 and now im going to get the picco for it=)
ya i stil wouldnt imagine that even if your pipe was off by a little the motor in it is just way to big to not make a difference you know what i mean???????
thats what i thought cuz i was thinking the only way you are going to brake your axles and crap like that is if youre realy trying really hard to cuz the revos are like the tuffest truck i have ever owned and there the most dependable fun and fast trucks stock too but mine now that its modified its so sick but i cant figure out how to upload the vids can you help

Does it strip gears a lot. And i the motor as easy to tune as the trx 3.3
rustlervxl97 10 months ago
@rustlervxl97 I never stripped a gear. The engine is not as easy as the 3.3, but it still easy. The break-in is VERY long. 7-8 tank
Damino95 10 months ago
Cool I will get one for my revo
rustlervxl97 10 months ago
whats the top speed?
rustlervxl97 10 months ago
@rustlervxl97 I'd say 55-60 MPH with the good gearing and a good straight line. I clocked it with this gearing on a short strip at 44 MPH

Even with a gap between the silicon joint and the manifold it makes a difference...

btw this truck sounds way mener than anything i have ever heard and how in the world did you get the idea of putting a boat pipe on it????
llbartlett96 2 years ago
I've wanted some crazy sound and power. But you need to cut the pipe perfectly at the right place or your gonna mess up everything.

llbartlett96 2 years ago
The easier is to go en the main page, and to the right top corner, there is an "Add video" button or something like this.
Damino95 2 years ago
ive heard things like that motor has so much power that it brakes things like your axles like every run is that true????
llbartlett96 2 years ago
For the year I got my truck, I only broke an A-Arm that is not related to the transmission of the power.
Damino95 2 years ago
hey man i have a revo 3.3 and im going to put that motor in it for racing would you recomind this motor is it very dependable
llbartlett96 2 years ago
Very denpendable, easy to tune, and as you can see... alot of torque! :D
Damino95 2 years ago
def. a bit lean ther, sounds like a beast tho
pimptydimp 2 years ago
Yeah, thanks, it was a lil bit lean, but it always make this sound because of the pipe, it's "normal".
And yeah, it's a beast, too much power and noise..!
