Just bought the Tekno EB48.2 What pistons do you use in the shock?

[croland1980]

What size track are you running on? Is the surface high bite or loose and loamy? How big are the jumps and does it blow out easily?

I myself will run the 8x1.3's on a fairly large medium-high bite track with medium to large jumps. The tracks in our area tend to blow out. When the track does this I will move to the 8x1.4's. On indoor damp high bite tracks with small jumps I will run the stock 10x1.2 pistons.

Jeff Beck "cptredbeard" runs the Fioroni pistons. I myself have not tried these pistons as of yet. But will in the near future.

 This is the track I race at.



The track is compacted with clay.

Good flow with smooth rolling landings. I would go with the 8x1.3's on Pink fronts with green rear springs. Load the shocks up with 35F/32.5R if you downside the jumps lap after lap.

Which oil are you guys using TLR or the AE? which one do you guys prefer?

Not any more, I pretty much run the Tekno 8x1.4s everywhere I go. 
Front: 8x1.4 / Tekno Pink or Green spring / between 550 - 650cst
Rear: 8x1.4 / Tekno Red or Purple spring / between 600 - 520cst

I prefer PT RC Racing oils. They are more standard in increments from cst to cst, more consistent from bottle to bottle, they don't seem to be effected as drastically by temp, and you can order them in monster 4oz bottles!

I have used the 8x1.3 but the csi seem to give more pack. Still trying to find the right oil combination for the kyosho blue and orange spring combo
