Novarossi Mito nitro on-road engines
New for 2015 is Novarossi’s line of Mito on-road nitro engines. Coming as 9-port Mito 9 and 7-port Mito 7 for 1/8th racing and smaller Mito.12 for 200mm nitro cars, all engines offer Novarossi’s patented shifted carburettor that grants better mixture flow through the crankcase for improved fuel efficiency and an optimised power curve. Also new are updated rear ball bearings for reduced rotating masses and an improved mixture flow inside the engine which relates to increased throttle response and higher top speeds. The .21 engines also come with a redesigned 3-needle carburettor for improved idle characteristics and an improved return to lower RPM when coming from the upper ranges of the RPM spectrum. The new engine line is rounded out by updated cooling heads with laser-etched logos.
