Starter Box Help?

I am buying a rb ws711 engine for my mugen mbx-5, I was wondering what is a good starter box that will be able to turn that engine over with no problems. Money not being an issue. Please fire away the suggestions.

Yep!

The Blue one with the chrome top and a "hi torque" motor.
Its a good looker and its got pretty good power.
If you REALLY want some serious power you should consider building one with one of those high power starters that you can get.
DO NOT get dual 550s.. they arent powerful enough to start high compression engines.

Dont skimp on your wiring either. I found out the hard way. Was using 18? gauge wire. It was pretty thin. It would get really hot, and if the motor was stopped for more then 5 seconds, the wire would melt. Lesson learned. ;)
