i want to install a tb140 kit in my x4r and was wondering if the kit is reliable and i won't have any problems running with it. i'm satisfied with the overall power right now, just looking for a little more ooommff coming out of the corners.......we run on go kart tracks....and also i'm wondering if anyone has experimented with steering dampners....what type and from who
thanx for your help

That 140 kit is freakin awesome. Very reliable and can make great power

are you going to put big race head on it?

I wasn't planning on using the bvh, i have this kit (the tb 140) kicking around and i can't remember if these kits are bolt on and go or if the compression is too great.......more worried about reliability...i'm having fun right now and am not looking to run fuel or breaking parts for the sake of alittle more speed.....no one using steering dampners i guess.....thanx for replies

I have the same kit and you will have to use some sort of mix of race gas or av gas. I was just running high octane gas and I was pinging. I just started adding octane booster and it seems to have cured the pinging.
