OK, the very first thing I would do is buy a primerless tank, or seal up the primer you do have. I was constantly trying to tune the engine at first, it wouldn't run correctly because of air leaks.
The second thing I would get would be the air filter and tuned pipe. I have the HPI High-Performance filter and the THS pipe. Drill new spring holes for the THS pipe so the stinger faces straight out. And try to customize the air filter attachment to get it out of the way of the cooling head. Thats my on my to-do list.l
