Default Engine match and performance on a GP Patriot

I need some help on a motor match up for a Great Planes Patriot. I've flown 2 in the past. 1 had a k&b 61 with a tuned pipe very fast but heavy vertical suffered. The second was an arf with a Super Tiger 45 stock muffler. The plain flew well and landed easier but I really want to have as much jet performance as possiable. the ARF would not allow a bigger engine with out mods. I have heard that an enya 45 with a pipe has exelent performance. I personally have a webra 61 and the header from my K&B fits .Will this engine out Perform my k&B . Both planes are gone and I only have 1 kit. IF any one has a Patriot Kit or Arf NIB I would Like to buy.
