Default which is the better motor?

apple to apple in the same setup, which motor would you rather have?

and LRP 17x2 or a Money Motor 19t

both cost about the same.

i would take the money over the lrp, better quality motor. but i would get a different 19 t spec over the money.. the 2007 orion element is cheaper and a faster motor.

i appreciate the thought cheech.. but im not buying a diff motor.
i own both the lrp and the money.
one is going into my sons car and the other in mine. wasnt sure which motor was ultimately better from the two.
i hear great things about the money

On a Budget?

Team Orion Method R 15x2T...



No Budget

Team Orion Revolution Touring 15x2T




I have had the Team Orion Method R's in 19x2 and the 15x2T and they have never let me down and with adjustable timing you can tune them in for either Torque or High RPM..

My friend uses the Team Orion Revolution 10x2T and that thing is an animal...

i have not had personal experience with that particular motor, but have had with many many electric motors. and in my opinion stock factory motors just don't cut it. good luck with it, but my guess is your going to take the money motor back.

I think Lrp motors are better quality motor.

An LRP better than a Checkpoint motor in quality, i have to strongly disagree.
