Default 1/8 E Buggy recommendations

I race nitro but want to get into 1/8 electric...I know every company makes a kit. But seriously which kits are standing out. I was leaning towards TLR or Tekno...Thanks

What do you currently run for Nitro? If you like that car, I would recommend the same company

Tekno eb48.3 or, if you can find a Tekno V4 conversion kit for your nitro buggy, get that.

I currently run a Kyosho TKI4 buggy and TLR 8ight 4.0 Truck. I don't need to run the same brand, I run what works for me.

I have a losi 3.0 ebuggy and decided to go nitro and picked up a brand new 3.0 nitro because I know the chassis and would need one set of spares.

in that case its a no brainer to get another tki4 and slap the e-conversion on it, the nitro and ep MP9's handle very similarly so it makes switching between the two on race days a seamless experience
