I don't really think it makes a big enough difference to spend the extra cash to get one. Spend your money on tires or something. Maybe the new spring set that just came out a couple weeks ago. That's really the only upgrade that I know of right now.

Front or Rear 2.3 sway..?

I have the silver spring set for my ECO-what springs are we running on the 6T? Hopefully not the same on the buggies!

Any shims on the engine shaft outside of the flywheel nut should be 5mm ID, nothing larger. The conical shims that Joe is talking about are 10 OD, 5 ID.

No performance upgrade with the BCE chassis on the truggy. Just does not bend in center like the stock chassis.

Front sway bar. I'm not real sure what springs people are using on the truggy but I got the 8.0 for the front and 8.25 for the rear. I haven't had a chance to race with them yet so I don't know how well they work.
