Like I said on the XTM forums, kick ***** vid dude. I really like the job you've done with the modded engines. Nice work! [sm=thumbup.gif][sm=thumbup.gif][sm=thumbup.gif][sm=thumbup.gif]

well guy, unfortunately this video is just testing some modded engines......neither of these vehicles are mine, so i was just testing and tuning the motors that I ported..... But if you look thru my video collection I have plenty of bashing vids........

Which engine you moded seems to be the best built, machining wise?

Do you change character when you change user name?

the STS is better built IMO...it has much more advanced crank timing, heavier case and a nicer sleeve.... But due to the STS's advanced crank timing its alot harder to dial in... So I can see rookies having issues with these motors as they requirew a little finesse and skill to make operate correctly... And I'm not just talking needle tuning, I am including head shimming, tuned pipe selection, glow plug and fuel.... If any of these parameters aren't met the STS will not perform... But the SH is very forgiving, and seems to perform excelent no matter what... So foa more advanced user the STS will deliver more power no question, but for the average user the SH is a much better bet....... It tooke me a little while to figure out the STS 30 and get it running nice, when i first got it it was a total PITA and had me pulling out my hair....... But now it is one of the best engines I have ever used, it has insane power, axle snapping tourque and blistering aceleration and extremely good top end..... When you consider Integra's Savage is 14 lbs and look at the way the STS 30 makes it acelerate its very clear that its an awesome powerhouse...... The way it is right now, it starts usualy within the second pull and will idle all day long...
