Default SIG Mayhem 40: engine and servo recs

I would like to hear from Mayhem 40 owners. I am a super tigre guy so what size engine should I get for this? No 4 strokes. too much money. I like a lot of power.
Also, will standard futaba 3004s works or do I need something else?

I am not an expert, but I am not sure if those servos are enough. The plane is HUGE for a 40 and the control surfaces are gigantic!

I have an OS .46 in mine. Weighed in at 4 lbs. 11 oz when it was all said and done. Flew well with that engine (but I'm not much of a 3-der).

I used standard JR servos on the ailerons and slightly beefier servos on the rudder and elevator.
