hey I just got a savage and I love it it ripps,but I was wondering what engine upgrade should I do,I like the hpi but later on I want to upgraded to a better,I was thinking about the hyper 21 but you tell me what should I buy. thanks for looking

I like the Hyper 8 port but I have heard the brake in on that engine is hard.

breakin in the 8port is hard but with the help of blow dry and after run oil before pullin that hard to pull pullstart makes it easy..its hard to pull for like 4tank then after that u get a nice engine...but there are lot of powerful engines out now ..like dynamite mach26 and picco26

thanks tjmaxx and badboy,Bad boy how does your savage runs with the hyper 21??

I've got a wasp .26 and it's almost too much power. Thing really rips, and is decent priced to boot. If you've read past posts about them, the latest batch has the LSN and the o-ring probs fixed. Mine ran great right out of the box. If you get one, you'll quickly find the pull start sucks. Broke & fixed mine twice before giving up on it. Suggest a strong starter box, or maybe a rotostart.

The good thing about the wasp26/Pico26 is that the Rotostart fits on them.A guy at my LHS has a wasp in his MAxx and he uses the Rotostart.You can't get a starter box to work on a Savage so if your having problems with a pullstart the Rotostart is your only option at the moment.

the 8 port is runnin good and still easy to start ..if u want cheap engines i go to critter hobby theysell the picco26 there for 180 and the wasp for the same price..then the dynamite mach26 is 145 and xtm247 is 145 also

do they have the pullstart sg version of the mach available yet?
