I came upon a website called Nitro Blast, which was a fuel additive that was claiming to reduce engine temperature while increasing horsepower, rpm's and definitely making your car last longer. From what I have seen, this additive is more of a lubricative additive, but not an actual lubricant. It's more of an oil, and it produces less friction through the piston, so since the engine, if ran rich during the break in for this additive, that meant that you are running too cool, afterwards since you have a cooler engine temperature, you can have leaner needle settings which means a faster engine without damaging its permanent life amount. You guys can go check this out, this was cool, i wanna try this out soon :drool: www.nitroblast.com
 
I have seen this before.
If you are racing and need that extra edge you may want to try it, otherwise, concentrate on getting a good tune.

Just one guys opinion.
 
Dang right eddy..

I will say this, and any real mechanic that works on 2-stroke engines will tell you this.

A 2-stroke motor runs it's absolute best right before it's going to blow up. So getting the best tune is the only way to get the motor right. Leaner = More power, less life, Richer = Less power, more life. There is no "quick fix" for that old standard. :)
 
Damn straight, they do run the best RIGHT before they explode.


I had a DAMN Nice tune in a TRX .15. 10 Minutes later the Piston and rod shot out of the bottom of the Crankcase.

(well, Peices of em)
 
Well, it's the same with every 2-stroke motor, except for a 2-stroke diesel, but that's a different ball game in itself.

The reason I would believe... The leaner the things running, the more chances for wear. Less lubrication means something is going to let go. Say you pop that perfect tune that NOONE has.. And 2 minutes later the oil just isn't enough to stop the wear.. Something locks up, you're done. :) Just a matter of finding where the wear and performance meet a good match. :)
 
I like a real thick blue cloud from about 1/4 throttle to full throttle...

Not too mention, the smoke just looks cool, I know in my head that smoke is good, and thick blue smoke is better...

I run things pretty rich.
 
well we'd imagine youd say that...lol.. The guys are Rcinnovations say the superchargers work awesome too..lol.. Just yankin your chain. (welcome to the boards!)

But yeah on my dirtbike I was about 3 miles from home and all of a sudden I noticed the thing was runnin awesome as hell! I had power on demand, could pull a wheelie in 3rd gear then.. Poof... Anti freeze everywhere.. There went the head. It was lts of fun pushing the bike home 3 miles with antifreeze all over my legs and shoes.
 
He was promoting his product, and that is a no no.
Thanks to a trusted member, who brought it to my attention.
