    Hello everyone.

    Just bought myself a Thunder Tiger ER-1 Impreza with a Pro 28 engine.

    Having problems tuning the engine! Does anyone here have one of these or the older model?

    Any help is greatly needed!!

    Cheers,

    pgdavy

    Have you got the needles at factory default?
    What problems are you experiencing?
    Give us a bit more info and we can take it from there. ;)

    Got it sorted now thanks! Took it back to the shop I got it from and he tuned it for me!

    Anywhere in Kerry that I can get Quikfire16 from?

    whereabouts in Kerry are you?

    There is a guy in Listowel that has some gear but not sure about nitro

    There is also Limerick ...Cork..Or Ennis..
    any of those close to you?

    Hello Vectra, I'm in Castleisland so Listowel isn't too far! I'll Google ur man in Listowel and call him tomorrow.

    I know there used be a model shop in Killarney but that closed down about 2 years ago!

    Any companies in Ireland that will ship this stuff?

    You could ask any model shop to send it down by courior but it wont be cheap. Oh and Vectra what stuff do halfords sell and how much cos halfords opened in carlow, its only a 25 minute drive so its handier than waterford.

    They sell Tornado 16% and 25%
    But, after what happened to my 3.3 i would say stick with the 16% :rolleyes:

    Even though... My old 2.5r in my sons T-Maxx seems to love the 25%

    My 3.3 ran like a sewing machine on MT16%
    so there you go..
    All down to the particular engine i think.;)

    What happened there? Was the 25% too strong?

    expensive?

    Could be with the 3.3... I think it just blew its top.. It is going back to Traxxas UK tomorow anyway.

    expensive?
    €60 a gallon ( comes in 1/2 gallons ) I think the 16% is a bit cheaper.

    NoelBarret in Cork has Gallons of coolpower @ €30 a gallon.. Guess what i will be using next.;)

    Neither... It is as smooth as a piece of glass. :D
