Hey guys! I have got a lot of messages, or people asking me about the differences between the Tubro Glow Plugs and the Standerd Glow Plugs? And i had to just say, im not sure!:shoot: So i was wondering, and theres probably some other guys/gal out there wanting to know this too, could we have the differences between the turbo and standerd plugs?

The only thing i know is that Turbo are more expensive, dont use a washer and they have a better fuel/air mixture combustion, but when i asked people they said, Standerd are better in the way that there cheaper but the difference between the Turbo and Standerd is SO small you can even notice it...:thumbs:...So i get them in the way they say, standerd is basically the same except for the price and no washer...

So from them saying that, im starting to get to the conclusion that (it dosent matter) which one you use, they have the same power and do they same thing...:rctruck:

Turbo plugs reach further down into the combustion chamber, they taper down as you tighten them and bottom out flush with the combustion chamber(as long as you use the right plug), this tight fit down into the combustion chamber, and the highly effective seal created by the tapered fit of the plug make for an engine that is more efficient, with a tick more compression, which in turn leads to a slight increase in power, and in many cases a little bit better fuel mileage.

At least that's what I've read:ah1:

haha lol thanks bro!...

As im running the 3 port Redline which is standerd, but the 5 port is Turbo...Well, for my first .21 enine i wont need any more power...and the standerd is easier to tune! :) But when that engine dies, i will get the 5 port...
