Now this might be a silly question but here it goes.
Does my new engine come pre set from factory for running in?
I know there is a web site for instructions on this motor, but was wondering what would be a good base setting ie turns out on top & bottom?

Been thinking last 2 meets i'm slow exiting corners, and thought it just me.
However yesterday, Ash from BMM asked me what pipe I was running with the GRP .21 tuned.
I replied the one with the combo kit.
He asked if I thought it a bit lacking in bottom end, and I replied yes.
He then told me, he changed to a JP4 and it transformed the engine, with better bottom end, and improved fuel economy.

Just wondered what other people thought?

the engine is quite sensitive to air temp changes ,i have no complaints about the power  nor the run time come to think of it ,but i do adjust my needles to suit the track and the air temp .
