no modding what so ever. the crank has the nub for the pull start back plate. I'm not sure, but may be the same crank as the zr30 spec 2.

Do u think that just by putting a ercm pipe it will increase power by alot?

Im sure it will buddy. If its with in ur budget go for it! I made the mistake of buying a "off the self pipe" and ended up selling it, now I'm saving up for an ERCM end bleed lol. Ur motor has a little over a gallon on it right? What gearing are u running? Does the truck wheelie?

I would think that LRP 30 should outperform the .32.. The 30 already has more than enough torque, and will certainly have more top end than a .32.. So what's the point of a .32? Running uphill in mud maybe, or pulling stuff...
And yes, all you need is the backplate from the pullstart version for the LRP 30X. It's not like the older LRP Spec 3 p/s and truggy version, where you couldn't switch because of the nub on the crank....(or rather a lack of one on the truggy version...)
