Tuning Advice

The following "How to" articles are intended to provide the DIY Tuner with some advice on how to prepare their GX or clone engine for racing. They cover a range of modifications, some of which are legal in MSA racing and others that should only be used for improving the performance of engines being raced in an open series, for fun or for other applications such as an Eggmotor. We also have a range of "Off the Shelf" parts that can be fitted to your engines to increase performance. Click here for further information.

We will be doing a number of tuning articles over the next few months that will form the basis of out monthly newsletter. Once these have been published they will be avilable on the Performance Upgrade Guide.



Performance Upgrade Blog

Coming soon. We take a standard GX160 5.5hp engine and take it through various Stages of tune to see how much HP we can get. These articles will also show the performance gain from our various aftermarket parts. All Stages of tune will be tested on our dyno and dyno graphs will be available to compare.
