What’s up family so today of my upgrades came today. 17T/44T RC Racing chain and E3 Spark Plug. Tell me what y'all think

I think you are going to have some greasy hands here soon!:clap:

I put e3 plugs in tacoma and it ran like SHIT. I've heard very mixed reviews on them so I will be very interested to see how it goes for you.

I'd just run an NGK platinum or iridium, E3s seem like a scam to me.

E3's don't get along with some electronic ignition systems, but should work just fine on one of these simple machines.

Personally, I am with Franque and will stick to NGK's.

Now, if you REALLY want to get silly, you can index your plugs. Want to talk about some old school performance tuning? lol.

I am curious about the 420 chain. It should work, but why not a 428 chain like these bikes come with?

Man... I forgot all about plug indexing! I remember doing that forever ago!

methinks its a boo boo.

Yeah, the sprocket is for a 428 chain, you might want to (need) to get the right size chain for that to work.

Most of those speciality are scams.. If you don't have the performance they promise they will simply say, "well yes those # are on custom made engines that are used in Nascar type races... No refunds k bye"

Not saying that I did do it with my Hawk.

But, I did do it with my Hawk lol.

Did it make any sort of a difference? probably not, but it made me feel better inside. :hehe:

Ok cool so go 428 on the chain. As for Why I chose to go with the 420 chain just wanted to try something different I did a little research so I figure it’ll work. Thanks for the help guys and I am aiming to get top speed so if y’all have anything I’m all ears

franque 05-18-2020 07:04 PM

They're incompatible. You could theoretically run a 428 chain on 420 sprockets, but not the reverse, as 428 is wider than a 420, so the 420 chain will be too narrow for the sprockets.

NzBrakelathes 05-18-2020 09:14 PM

Should have upgraded to 520 chain, cheaper brand will be fine on these low Hp engines etc.
I watched a video on the E3 plug on a TBR7 and he claimed slight improvement - but these ol clunkers just an NGK etc good plug will do....
