klanderman- Totaly true with the wasp .12 I have one in my rs4 3 which I was running today. Thing has insane top speed and has great pick up. Used to have a bogging problem but I dont have it now for some reason. Weired.
Getting the starter box and a jr xs3 saturday and should drive it soon.

Totally Bro... I used to have Os engines, RB engines and they all worked great, but this little WASP engine is a terror on the track, what's best is the combination of engine, header and tuned pipe, all from team orion... it sounds awesome. I'm glad someone else has tried the engine because for the price is unbeatable!!!

ya, I was going to buy a fantom but the lhs was out and they recomended the wasp .12 I looked it up on line and there were no complaints. Couldnt be happier with it. Did you ever experience a bogging during acceleration? Mines fixed but I am just curious.

nope... never, it's easy to tune and works great, haven't even blown a glow plug yet. I use OS medium temp and mostly to bash .15% fuel, but when racing I use 25% with another plug.

End of the straight is flat out with a bit of a lift into the right hander. Thats a fun corner
