RCCA's tests put the Sirio behind the 129 dollar Epic in it's tests... and both of these fell behind the results of the OS 18...

Go ahead, spend YOUR money.

Got my OS .18 for $135.00 short shaft with pull starter. It is every bit as good as my RB S7II as far as quality, and ease of tune. Runs clean all the time and once set requires very little adjustment if any. Really noticable is the mid range torque.

Outstanding performance in a rc10 gt.

I have the .18 on my evader, it is awesome. I put big nobby tires on the back and it rides wheelies through the lawn.

either the os 18 cvr or the epic 18 the os beat the epic in a test by 1 mph so its not much it pretty much comes down to wich one is less cost and wich one you think looks the best but i think think the os would give you more life also if moeny isnt a issue for you os also makes a rear exaust 18 the os 18 tm it would be a big difference from the cvr.
