Default Need advice.

I picked up the Hangar 9 Showtime 4D ARF 90 flier. So, what engine do you guys think I should get? I want peak performance. Money, as long as the bill is under 400$ or maybe a bit over it's fine.

A guy at my field has one with a satio 125 but you might look into a YS 1.10. Its about the same as the 125 but its fuel injected and has other cool features. I have one on my seagull yak and love it.

I current have my 4th & 5th showtime (still have a lot to learn about 3D down on the deck), but I love these things once you take the time to dial them in like a pattern plane. I've used OS108, new OS120, and YS110 on two of them. YS110 seems to be the best. I "had" to use a pitts muf for the 120. May I also suggest using a Hyde soft mount no matter which engine, but especially for the YS110.

I think that a Saito 180 would make you very happy with its performance.

Saito link

It is priced at $399.99
