I have an older Rody X12 about to have the sleeve resized by a well known place(no,no c-clamps,was reveiwed by a major r/c mag). My question is that my engine is a 3 port non turbo, can I convert it to a turbo button and will I see any performance increases?

Yes, you can convert it by changing the head-button, as for the performance gain, it should be around 3%

Part#01700-013 and you can leave the head-clearance the same. If you are running the engine hard we suggest you use glowplugs 01051-6
