Capricorn LAB-E01 2011 version & KEL850 treated muffler

Capricorn have announced the 2011 version of their .12 touring car engine. The new version comes with a large head and underhead, optional on the WC edition engine, but which has been used by Martin Christensen to take victory at this year’s Euros. The new additions allow for a higher running temperature and the use of a hot glow plug. Capricorn have also released this KEL850 treated Novarossi 2660 Muffler. This new treatment will replace the original hard coated version as it can be used on any kind of aluminium, not only ergal. This new ceramic-titanium treatment gives incredible hardness up to 65 Rockwell and results in higher durability and performance of the muffler as well as optimal resonance. Capricorn have also updated their website and all users that are subscribed before midnight tonight (CET) will be sent a discount coupon for their next order.

O.S. Speed new concept silencers

Seen during our coverage of the World Championships in Houston, O.S. Speed have released further details on their new line of on road exhaust systems. These new exhausts are fixed to the manifold with a pair of aluminium clamps which prevent the silencer from disconnecting during races. Unlike conventional spring connection, the semicircular clamps enable the adjustment of the pipe to any direction. The pipe itself makes the low to middle range response of the engine more snappy while maintaining top speed power. Available for the .21 (FEMCA & IFMAR legal) and .12 (EFRA & IFMAR legal) engines.
