What's the difference between a turbo & standard plug engine. Can you put a turbo plug in the standard plug engine. I just started racing & am looking at the rb concepts line of engines . For my x1 crt i'm leaning towards the s7 l2g & for my sons x1 buggy the s5 l2g . I am in the low to mid 2 hundred dollar range & i see a lot of the ws7 l2g at the track. Since we are just learning we don't need the fastest engine just good smooth power & reliable. Any input would be great, Thanks

on the turbo plug Q.....No u cant swap a turbo with Standard....and the difference is how they seal...standard uses the brass washer...the turbo uses a taper'd seal....but there's different taper's for different motor's....so mixing plugs can only be done when u know what match's what...or just buy the stock plugs....they are somewhat expensive....but in the long run they last alot longer...and rarely fail when u know how to tune......The only experience ive had with RB was with a modded C6.....it was quite the wild ride to say the least and still to this day has a top end like No other.....id consider another one some day.

Hey thanks for the info integra. What are the advantages of turbo plug engines? Is it worth the extra money? Thanks

I personally like the Turbo Plug's better. I feel they last longer, a tiny lil' bit more power, and best of all, no stupid washer to deal with.!

Also for engines, take a look at the Jammin JPX .21. Quite powerfull and mad crazy compression.

More snap in the bottom is what i feel mostly......worth the extra $$.....definatly....but most high end race mills come turbo already.

turbo plugs are suppose to be easier to tune vs the standard plugs. Ive see 2 sirio cl7b side by side, one turbo and one standard plug, both had smooth idle and couldnt tell them apart on the track. Price between the 2 plugs is another story. Aboout 5 bucks between the two with standard plug being cheaper. I buy sheets of turbo plugs (12) for 90 bucks, sheets of standard run about 60-70 bucks.
Biggest thing with plugs, getting the right heat range plug. Hotter the plug the more advanced timing, colder the plug, retards the timing.
RB is a great choice with your price range. OS v spec would be another.
