Both are good.

I have both Picco and Go engines and I really love the redline on my Picco, but the Go is an awsome block for the money.

You might as well get the starter box as the pull start seems convinient at first, but I spent loads on oneway bearings and pull start cords. Plus you lose a small amount of power to the oneway bearing. It adds extra weight and extra maintenance.

IMO a starter box is the way to go.

i used to have one in a hyper7,it was a great motor for the money you wont be completely blown away by other motors.my mate had a rbws7 in his identical buggy and was no quicker at all until the gallon mark when his would walk away at the top end,picco was torquier though.
