Aluminum servo horn if it don't have it already. Split center diff mount makes it nice for removing it quickly. 6x1.5 pistons are hot right now. Only thing needed is the horn.

Yes, in 2-3 months or so. And I heard it from a big bird.

So what would that be off
They may not do 'shocks" , But I certainly have a set of Blue CSi pistons . They should be pretty easy to id. BLue or red with a couple odd shaped holes along with regular holes. Again , just the piston.

Ha, yep a big bird indeed, but they're talking end of summer. Lots of good quality wheel time with your eb48.2s still to be had.

Eb48.2 is out of stock everywhere including from tekno and listed as temporarily unavailable at tower. That tells me a .3 is coming very soon.

It responds well to most adjustments, including squat/anti-squat, to fit most driving styles. It has several options for adjusting that with the insert pills, but also the LRC rear hinge pin mount as well.

Honestly the car really doesn't need anything at all beyond the servo horn. Most of us run the stock spring on 80% of tracks anyway, so you're good there. Besides the aluminum horn, I would pickup some 6x1.5 pistons, the low profile wingmount, and delrin shock guides and your car will be as tricked out as any team drivers car. I also like the low roll center plate or the new hingepin plates that take the square inserts, but those are not necessary to win races

When I first saw the price tag, I thought I'd just deal with it. After doing the center diff on my EB Saturday, I will have one of these on hand for the next time I decide to take it out, without a doubt.

Get you a servo horn , 6x1.5 pistons , and save the rest of the money and buy track time, shock and diff oil , and some tires. There is a bit of a learning / tuning curve with this car . Taking the time to sort it out makes it much more fun to race. Their is nothing on the car that will let you down ... My 2 cents , and overpriced at that
