Has anybody tried the associated pipe on the extech yet? Also you guys are saying this motor has a ton of bottom end, when putting the 053 on did it have to much? Im still deciding on a motor and im trying to take my time so i end up with a decent motor that matches my driving style.

I am comming from racing gas truck and this is my first season of 1/8th scale. I run an RC8 and currently run a Powerhouse modded Vega. the motor is great but it doesnt have a whole lot of life left but would make a perfect back up motor. I want the engine to have a nice smooth powerband and be good on fuel. I also like to have a strong bottom end but not to much to were it breaks loose everytime i hit the gas but enough to clear the jumps with no/little run-up. The motor will be modded by Mark Smith of Powerhouse performance but not right away becuase i want to run the motor to get a feel for it. So if you guys can post your suggestions for pipes and plugs that would be great. Also are the motors looking like they are going to last? Thanks in advance.

Today was my first outing with my Ex-Tech. I had two tanks through it earlier this week. Initially I was very concerned about racing with it, considering. I qual'd 8th in the B in a field of 40/50? This is a very good showing for me. Normally, I'm lucky to get into a D main, lol. Engine was temping right around 200 at the end of the 10 min. quals. Early on in the main I was battling for 4/5th, but (found out afterwords) 3 screws holding my steering servo had fallen out, and the fourth was half way out! Thx to Joe Alessi for the tuning help in the 2nd qual
