Default twist engine

I have a twist plug-n-play and was wondering if a OS .91 would be a good choice over the .46 evolution it comes with. Is it to heavy? It weighs around 10 ounces more I believe which seems to be a bit much I would think but some people are using Saito .82's and seem to not have a problem. Will the Evolution .46 3-D this plane? Thanks for everyones thoughts.

Have you flown it with that engine - some fliers say it flys well as is. I have the twist arf currently flying with a magnum 52xls using an apc 12x4 prop. It flys very well. Try the 12x4 or 12.25x 3.75 props. I think the 91 would be too heavy - plane would also fly heavier.
