Former Ski Racer and current racing enthusiast/four stroke advocate Rudy Del Pardo (aka Momarski) made the cover of Las Vegas Sports magazine. In a move that is sure to spread PWC racing publicity to dentist offices and discount motel lobbies all over the Las Vegas Area, Rudy and his trusty S4 made the entire cover of the June 08 issue.We are kidding you, Momar, about the dentist offices, we are actually very proud of the photo opportunity and your unending enthusiasm for PWC competitions.

The R&D High Compression Piston Kit is designed to boost overall compression for increased horsepower throughout the entire RPM range. Designed for closed course racing and race gas. The piston kit is already available (Pt. # 431-25095) from R&D.

The R&D RXT-X 84mm Pump Reduction cone will reduce the venturi size from a short O.E.M. 87mm large bore design to a plus .750 over stock venturi length with a final venturi size of 84mm. Increased hook up, stronger acceleration and mid range, improved top speed performance.

The new three cylinder Benelli version is available in four versions (actually five), three for the Series-S and two for the Series-R models. Horsepower figures start from around 100hp and reach 172hp. The horsepower difference is achieved by altering the mapping of the ECU, changing the compression ratio and the camshaft timing. The diameter of the throttle bodies as well as the size of the injectors remains the same at all engine applications.

The R&D RXT-X Pump Cone Kit is an inexpensive and creative bolt on part that adds extended length over the O.E.M. plastic pump cones length, which will reduce cavitation while adding additional pump thrust. Spacing the pump cones length will add to top speed while keeping the engine rpm’s stable and out of the rev limiter! Precision cast aluminum, CNC machined, and o-ring sealed for leak free pump bearing protection. Available at R&D.
