I Got A 3.3 Maxx And It Came With A Mid To High Range Tuned Pipe,a Promotion From Traxxas. Does Anyone Know The Factory Settings For The Low Side On The Carburetor? I Know The High Side Is 4 Turns Out From The Closed Position. I Had It Tuned Great For The The Stock Pipe But I Was Told To Retune For The New Pipe And I Can't Remember The Factory Low Side Setting.

no clue how many turns. traxxas support will tell you the same thing make it flush. if you really want to know how many turns close it then count turns as you flush it up again

i had to go rich for the pipe and got the low side tuned, I am pretty sure that the factory setting is 3 turns out from closed position on the low side because I had to lean it about 1/2 to 3/4 a turn and I set it this morning and mine runes best at about 2 1/2 to 2 1/4 turns out from closed. Hope this helps, I have a question HOW OFTEN DO YOU HAVE READJUST YOUR SLIPPER CLUTCH? I have ran about 15 tanks through mine and it started to slip, I tightened it and it runs great, thats why I had problems tuning, so I guess every 10 tanks it needs to be checked. If anyone has any info I would appreciate it!
