You need to call Sam and get the Eagle matched up with the 2630 nova pipe or the JP 2620...

Is the JP the stock or the tuned version that you are speaking of? I am currently trying to decide between the JP or the nova 353 (Both stock) and cannot make a decision yet. Any input or suggestions would be a great help. Maybe I should just get both? hahaha

Thank you!

JP has the first line that comes in stock and modded version....

The JP eagle only comes in a modded version as far as I know.

yep JP eagle modded only

I run a 12-3sct stock and an eagle, the eagle is faster everywhere but not quite the mileage.

My buddy has a murnan mod 12-3sct full ceramic and it has nothing on the eagle.



12-3 vs 353:
The 12-3 has more bottom the 353 has more top

from what i hear, they want to conquer off road for now, since they just dropped the new MBX, but its probably already in the making.

You are better off buying a first line modded version vs a stock eagle....

Good luck!
Are ceramic bearings a "must have" upgrade for the MTX-4R.............

yea mid to top it the eagle has more than the +12 but down low the +12 wins. but if you can find one get the to3-t and they say that the first line p3l is the same motor but i disagree the bore and stroke may be the same but the to3-t is faster than the first line in the top speed department. But if you want the fastest motor on the market the jp eagle tl3-t is the only option.

I am not just saying this because of he say she say i have a jp eagle .12 and a murnan modified rb r3 team edtion and let me tell you this motor might be the most balanced motor on the market low,mid, and top end, and it makes run time and no the xl3 or the xxl3 are not as fast as the mmrb r3 or the eagle tl3-t but the max does get better gas mileage. And to anyone how doesnt believe me come on down to 301 raceway the horsepower track this season and i will show you.

If you don't mind spending the extra $$$ get the Eagle mod..

I'm assuming the Eagle stock will have the same power as a stock +12ct and based on what I've seen the Firstline mod is a lot faster that the a +12ct
