Been googling VP fuel... The Yanks absolutely love the stuff, nothing but the highest praise, many preferring it to Byron's. Looking forward to trying it (I bought a can of 25% too)

Very good point you made with it priming cold. This is going to be a process of elimination, best to start with the less in depth things even if they are less likely. Yup that's the exhaust I thought. Some diameter fuel pipe doesn't fit snug enough in the hole causing a lack of pressure in the tank. Check it's snug. Take the lines off and blow them through or replace if you have spares, clean any fuel filters. Take the tank out, leave the tubing on. Submerge in water, block off one line, blow down the other. Does the filler cap leak? Or any other part of the tank for that matter. Take the silicone joiner off, inspect for splits, refit with new cable ties, nice and tight. That's a tight angle it's at. Check all your needle settings. Do the carb gap first then set your LSN HSN to factory (will need to tune later) do this with the servo linkage disconnected and the carb rotated shut. If you have carb imbalance and the LSN is super lean it will struggle to get fuel past the carb. Reset the throttle servo horn and linkage to carb (trim on TX zero'ed before hand) Failing all that, check cooling head bolts are tight, remove carb and back plate and re-seal with RTV/Instant gasket. Would be worth doing the manifold too.

I'd be checking the exhaust gasket (against engine) and the silicone joiner for leaks first based on that info mate Have you got the silly TT exhaust where the pressure line goes into a hole rather than onto a barb?

Mines turned up

Not maybe, defiantly. Air leaks may be compounding the issue your having mind.

Never tune a cold engine, your always be chasing the tune about.

What are you trying to achieve ? Higher top speed? Faster acceleration ? Gearing will give you one at the cost of the other. A decent pipe isn't going to hurt, maybe a gearing/pipe combo is what you require.

Everything pictured

Peanuts mate, don't panic. TS4N bits are cheap as chips. Under a tenner easy

Braces come up quite often, you could try CML, alternatively AsiaTees do them but your need to buy a PBS torque plate from somewhere as well (braces from AT are for the PBS hyper)

I don't think it's going to give you the results you are after. Look in to gearing, porting and even engine upgrades. Pipes don't give 'wow' differences in performance although they do help. I ported my pro BX .15 and it made a huge difference!

Yup, I cut my nose off

Hehe Yup ST pro towers, you won't bend or break one of those! Front bumper is a T-Bone (google ) Braces = eBay

I would of gone 16% if they had it cheap Should be a little more forgiving for run in then Byron's 20% (9? 12%? Oil?) Plugs a P3

15 in mine

Couldn't resist ! Bought some 'master basher' (20% nitro 14% oil !!!!) to run my engine in with. Will try it in the TS4N first just to make sure it's not white spirit and sunflower oil

Wheel base is longer than standard on the TS4N, so don't buy pre cut shells. On a side note, I love how popular the TS4N has become (again) since TT re-re-released it awesome car

My nanda hex's lasted a good while and I thought I'd got away with it, then one went awesome tyres poo rims

Good stuff! Now get the other running and sell it so the first one cost you buttons

GPM stuff is poor quality. The only things really worth upgrading to alloy are the gearbox housings, belt tensioner, small pulleys. Everything else is bling and weight. 'Nout wrong with bling though mind

Pm'ed

Good find not tried VP before, would give it a go but I'm heavily stocked at the moment

Sure have mate, drop me a PM with your offer Would prefer to sell as a job lot though due to P&P

Go on the Hyper !

BUMP! All new stuff added
