Default RE: H9 Sundowner

GZ7 racer... see now thats an intelligent post/ reply.
I made a post here about trying a DA 50 and someone replied that the extra weight would destroy it. Turns out that the DA is a pound lighter then the EVO.
My 3rd plane was a super sporter 60 with mods retracts knuckle hinges and a tight cowl sheeted wings. This hit the radar at 119mph on multiple passes. If you know the plane, this bird in know way has a fast wing.
I had this plane about 14 years ago. This is why I am looking at the DA50 or the ys for the cool looking plane. If I am building a nice looking plane I want to be able to open up the throttle once and a while and push the 120+ mark. Bring back the old days of 6'' off the deck 120 passes and slow rolls.
THe plane should be here today so I will know more about the cowl mods or it just might be the YS unless anyone knows of a stronger nitro engine.
anyone out there using a YS dz160 or dz170. Is the YS stronger then the EVO?
by for now
