Swede the .25 is a excellent engine, it just works good all around in a truggy. Also Grudinger was right on about the plugs.

British Menance, Tmizzle has ran all the engines in his team magic so I would take his advice. But for pipe I would say either the Go 2047 or the Dynamite 053.

TMizzle 01-01-2008 10:04 AM

053 is great on the 5 and 7 port.
Out of the 7 GO motors i saw at this weekends club race here in houston... 6 of them were 7 ports.

The 5 or 7 will do what you want anywhere on the track, you can't go wrong with either.

anyone running the 3 port go sport motor???
was thinking of picking one up for my girls new buggy ( stepping up from MT)...

TMizzle 01-01-2008 10:23 AM

I have ran it, it is a great engine. I honestly couldnt tell i was running a "sport" motor power wise but I did but the turbo button in.

I say go for it, it will have enough power when she gets used to buggy and needs it. Start off standard plug and when she needs just a lil more to whoop on the boys pop the turbo button in. :) :tire:

The 3 ports are a great little motor, it has very snappy bottom but doesn't get all crazy on top, it would be a great motor for her to get use to what a buggy feels like, and as she gets used to the car and motor, simple upgrades to a turbo button show good improvments to the motor that show up on the track, we had a GO 3 port sport at the TN indoor race this weekend and it was getting alot of attention, it ran with just about anything.

mugenb46 01-01-2008 12:49 PM

kevin, thank you for running them. Ya Jeremy and i were rollin everytime we saw the tires when you came on to the front strait, the fiirst thing that came to mind was the photoshots of NHRA drag tires and how they get all distorted LOL. Hope to see you guys again soon

TMizzle 01-01-2008 12:54 PM

There were 3 GO 7 ports in the A at the final race of the HARC season here in houston. 80+ entries

i think, for my next motor, i'm gonna have to get a GO 3 or 5 Port. I have seen these motors do so well here in Houston, I just have to try one for myself

mugenb46 01-01-2008 12:58 PM

T Mizz, your Hybrid 7 port will be going out tommorrow LOL, I ran in our TN state indoor championships this weekend and Qualified 2nd in 1/8 buggy running the 7 port, and had the throttle cup pop off 3 min in and slammed the wall at full tilt boogie down the strait, all i broke was a A arm. Held TQ for one round though:nod:

TMizzle 01-01-2008 01:03 PM

lmao! why you call it a hybrid?
Did you find a good crank/block out of the box-o-parts i sent ya?

nik77356 01-01-2008 01:06 PM

heck, i may even try the 3 port because its soo much cheaper! :nod:

TMizzle 01-01-2008 01:10 PM

Nik, its more than enough for the tracks we race on... Perfect for Mikes.

mugenb46 01-01-2008 01:12 PM

LOL hybrid, morph,jolapy LMAO ya i did. I thought the best thing was the 7 port sleeve in the 3 port case, with the 3 port exaust being closed off the way it is you really had a 5 port LOL:lol: When should i see the .25

nik77356 01-01-2008 01:20 PM
