Just stick with the stock carb. You will get a ton of opinions and no solid data to back it up. Tons of people are going to recommend the losi carb but if you go to the losi forum and ask the same question a ton of them will recommend the 3.3 carb.

There may be some gains to be found with some of the high dollar carbs from an RB race engine or something but the cost just isnt justifiable when you could buy a nice os or picco engine for a few bucks more.

I was going to put the losi carb or the OS 11k carb off the OS 21tm engine on my 3.3, but the 3.3 is just a cheap engine that, for a lot of ppl, doesn't seem to last that long anyway so I thought it was a better idea to just get a better engine, I have a new O.S 21tm on its way & the 3.3 is sitting on the bench in pieces after the bearings started to fail, after only around 6 litre's of fuel. Just get a better engine, will save you money in the long run.
 
Yeah the stock carb works fine, but its to small for the engine & the very fine adjustments it needs to the needles to get the tune right are a pita. Put a better carb with a bigger throat size & it performs much better, & most other carbs like the Losi 3.4 & O.S don't need such fine needle adjustments which makes them easier to tune. There is a few threads on different forums with many ppl saying they have got better performance & an engine that is easier to tune & also holds the tune better once a different carb had been put on. I had been going through them myself because I was looking for something better, but the bearings started to fail in my 3.3 so I now have a better engine on the way.
