Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

I learned a lot about these engines in the last couple years. Not much to them.

That sounds funny. hehe

But, yes, you are right, not much to them. And, they should cost a lot less for that very reason! :O

My brother and i have five of the dle 170's on the dle cans and headers. They run really good. We always change the carbs to walbro and ignitions to rcexl.

Any comparison between by the DLE stock mufflers and the DLE cans and headers? Why the ignition swap? And, with swapping both the ignition and the carb you are losing a lot of the savings, no?

DLE has / is having a known ignition problem. My 170 all the sudden started kicking back, both my 120's have as well. Mostly hall sensor related issues though is what seems to be fixing them.

Its only about $150 for both. I havent checked myself but they say you gain 400 rpm on the dle cans. The reason we run them is the sound though.

I should add on the ignition, if you are going to switch out a DLE ignition (made my RCXL) you are only possibly getting a different timing curve since most of the new DLE ignitions are labeled for specific engines. I would strongly suggest calling these guy's for a replacement ignition and if you have questions give them a call. Extremely knowledgeable: http://www.rcextremepower.net/

Somehow I missed the ZDZ 180 experience (stupid work trip) but after catching up, I'm thinking ZDZ USA will be getting some business from me.

So just replace the sensor? Or you have to replace the ignition, too?

I noticed they were really inexpensive. I'm not worried about gaining rpms, I just don't want to lose any rpms, if possible. I would be running them for sound, too.

Its not about the money. We really like the performance
