RE: sirio .27 carb
you dont need it, just tune the thing. set the idle stop screw to 1 or 1.5 mm. then start the engine and heat it up. then adjust the hsn first, get it to where the engine has a crisp clean sream at top speed. then richen it about an 8th of a turn. next adjust the lsn while the car is at idle,if the rpm sounds high, richen it up (use 1/8 turn increments for that engine, the carb is sensitive)if the rpm is low lean it a bit. i always set my engines a little lean on high end,and a little rich on low eng, cuz if my engine gets a little warmer than i want while racing or bashing, i can just let it idle and it will cool itself off on its own. besides, there is air flowing over the engine at high speed, to cool it down.----chris

the standard (non turbo was installed on mine) but the engine runs much better with the turbo button installed. i use rossi and sirio plugs, i'll post later and let you know which it is.and like i said in the first post that carb is very sensitive. you need only make small adjustments. good luck----------chris
