Default Jato W/ OS 18 TM (pics)

I just installed an OS 18 TM in my Jato. I used the Mugan Header. I did need to shave down the EZ Start that connects to the engine for the header to fit properly. This thing flies. It's faster than the 2.5 with M/S filter and 33%. I have Dirt Hawg tires in the rear and they ballooned sooo much that they ripped the glue off the rim and the foam was coming out. I had all that power happening even when the motor isn't even properly tuned yet.

I still havent ran it top speed yet. I had to cut my day short due to the tires falling apart and the C-clip falling out holding the gear on the motor.

What air filter are you using? Does the TM take a .14mm or 15mm fitting where it goes on the carburetor like the TZ? I have a TZ to drop in my MT but so far the only air filters I have found that will fit are so big like the one on the Savage.

I'm using the M/S air filter that i originally had on the stock 2.5 engine. I don't know the mm size.
