I think the guy has had enough thoughts about which engine to buy.

I am sure ... he is as confused as he was when he posted the thread.

A good option would have been to start a poll and see the results.

I would only say one last thing ....
In my ten years experience I have learned only one thing... Engine is the most important thing. NEVER compromise on Engine ... mostly people crash due to engine failures and dead sticks.
If i recomend somebody a plane I go with O.S (Ze Best !)
otherwise other relaible engines i know that are cheap also are ASP (the new series... atleast the 46 is good enough)
