I originally started with the very popular pink/green springs (Teknos of course) with tekno 1.3x8 pistons and 35/30 oil. This worked good--certainly acceptable--tiny bit of nose dive.
Now we are running the SRAMOS setup--green front/red rear tekno springs, Fioroni pistons, 37.5f/32.5r oils at 25 ride height. Nose dive non existent!! I have read and created a monster database of notes from page 1 of this forum--I'm pretty sure SRAMOS was one of the first to go to the red rears. I had my doubts until I saw him doing well at some big races--so we decided to try it and its the BOMB!!
BTW--our battery is in its stock position, no weight put in the rear (some guys have been putting servos in the rear location). Our truck is lightened a bunch but I know SRAMOS truck is around 7lbs (ours is like 6.6ounces). Still doesnt seem to matter--his setup just works for us, period.
This is my 14y/o sons truck--we are serious racers--zero bashing--truck ONLY run indoors--he was fortunate enough to TQ and win the main on Friday night at Trackside Hobbies against some very accomplished A-drivers!!
Id say most of our success has come from switching over to SRAMOS setup--but that doesn't mean it works for everyone.
There are lots of good setups out there--I'd say try a few of them out and see how they work for you based on driving style, etc. But make sure you when you pick a setup that you copy it exactly--these guys spend TONS of time with dialing in their rides and even 1 spring/oil change, camber change etc can alter the dynamics dramatically!!
Biggest problem now is the Fioroni's have been out of stock for a while--you can blame SRAMOS for that!!!!

Yeah i can't get my truck to stop nose diving... 8th scale outdoor tracks is what i'm running on. Running kyosho orange springs 45wt front and rear kyosho yellows 40wt. stock pistons also need ton of pack. I have not done battery mod... Full droop all around and no orings.
Some new tweaks I've been making have been very good. Still a few more I need to do, but I'm digging the direction I'm heading

First day at the track with the new Tekno ET48. This was the base set up we received from Danny and the Tekno crew. This thing has a ton of rear traction from the get go and its very quiet. I cant wait until we start playing around with the adjustments. Nice video Alderboy

No problem, just glad Dave posted that video so I have something to look forward too when I get back from Taiwan in a month.
