What Engine to buy gor Losi Eight Buggy??
I am looking for reliability an performance... An i want an engine that holds a good tune... That i can get a good 10 gallons out... And works on a big open track!! I have narrowed its down to 2 engines i believe any other suggestions would be great! I dont have a million dollar budget... i would like to be around 250... No 3 ports... 5 an 7s only... Alot of new engine companys since ive been in... Just need togo into the right direction!! thanks

Ok well... I have heard alot of good things about the GO's... But i have it narrowed down to the Siro EVO III NON STI or the RB S7 L2G... the RB is stretching budget a bit... But is it worth it? Longevity an performance wise?? ALso.. what pipes match these motors well? Thanks

The S7 is a very reliable engine, most RB's get 7-8 gallons on them on average if taken care of properly, but I've heard of 12 on more than one occasion, tons of power and pretty easy to tune, also holds a tune well. RB's seem to do really well with the JP pipes, I'm using the JP4 for both of my RB's.

If its a turbo plug it should work, but I like to stick with the RB plugs or OS plugs. My LHS sells the RB for 255.88 + tax.
