Hey all! I am changing over to Novarossi from RB, I am going for the +4 in my 8B 2.0, but don't know what to put in my 8T 2.0! A +4 or Toro Nero? I would like to hear from those who have these engines and what they think about them in there 8T 2.0's, Does the +4 have enough power in the Truggy and does the Toro Nero have the run time?

Thanks!

I have ran a plus4 in 2.0T, running it in 2.0B now...it had more than enough power.......plus4 is an awesome engine for sure......and you can get 10min out of Toro Nero as well from what I have heard

definitly easy to get 10 minutes out of the toro.without going on and on about it,i am looking to try a bottom end pipe on my toro.some of the tracks i run on are a little tight.the toro is an awesome engine,but i think the plus 4 might have some more bottom end.if i had it to do over,i would probably save a few bucks and go with the plus 4.

Just my experience with starter boxes.
Changing the switch to a higher amp one makes a big diff. too

i got a ofna truggy box when i bought my 2.0t and i just put the stops on and lines up great. I remeber reading that they changed the mount setup to help with the longer chassis truggies and buggies that didnt fit before. I can see from the pic on the box that what i got is actually different with a longer rear mount.
