I was looking to drop a trinity extech .24 in my 8 t 2.0 . How well does this motor hold up and how easy does it tune? Just looking for some newbie advise.

i would not get an extech!!! i had two one modded and one non modded and both of them the silicon in the crank came out messing up the whole engine! the non modded got almost 3 gallons on it before it did it and then the modded one got 3 quarts of fuel threw it before it happened. i got the non modded one back but it has been 8+ months and i still havent seen the modded one and to come to find out they arent even making parts for them anymore and i dont even think they are still making the engine. i dont know what happened but almost everyone has had this problem. you can get the engine and take the silcon out and run it but youll loose about 30 sec or so on run time. i was getting 8+ min with the non modded in a buggy and 13 min with the modded in truggy.

Same engine as the Orion .24.

I bought the Orion 24 and it is a useless €300 paperweight.. No idea why. Very careful break-in, etc.. Started spitting plugs, bla bla bla... Haven't messed with it since having it pinched after 20 tanks..
