They flat out rock!

If you can go up to $225, Definately go with the Jammin/ Picco JPX .21 That's what I race with, and between the Hyper for practice, and the Jammins for racing, my engine choices will never be in doubt again

Losing speed compared to what? The sport engine that comes with the RTR Losi? No way! The jammin .21 will blow away the RTR engine that comes with the Truggy. You will also get better fuel milage and longer run times allowing for less pits when racing. Jammin .21 use the 053 pipe, and the jammin .28 goes best with the 2027 pipe

I say get this & run your JP-3 pipe & be done with it. I have lots of experience with this combo & its very similar to a v-spec & very expencive OS pipe .It also out lasted most V-specs I have seen including mine. Stop with the .28 motors its not needed.

I think a 2047 or a 086 would be a good pipe for the Go Tech .28
