is this motor strong enough for a truggy. our tracks are really good here we have big tripples and small triples that needs alot of bottom end to get over with long straight aways. i have the new dynamit mach 2 on my buggy and i get 10 min to a tank. so i was just wondering if it was goin to do the same for a truggy if i was to buy this motor.

Negative, Horizon has exclusive Orion distribution and I dont see the part #'s for the half the stuff still. Probably will be some time before the pipes are available... they look pretty spendy as Amain has them for $135 yikes....
I'd wait and see what Ron comes up with, those should be priced a whole lot better and be more durable from the sounds of it. The old 2013s were super fragile... dont sneez!

Tony, thought you always loved running electric! Will keep you advised on new items when we get them in and about the snow. Even though I know it will get worse for you before it gets better (lol!), spring is just around the corner for you. You just need to get past winter first and everything will be good lol!
hobbstimothy, no problem pushing a truggy around with the B5! Flip through some of the pages and you will see comments from some of the people using them in one. Plenty of torque for them!
Tony, $135 is pretty high on these but I'm sure most of the people bringing stuff in from Europe are really getting hammered by the exchange rate right now. Keeping my fingers crossed but I'm hoping to at least maintain my old price on them.

from the look of it since Losi has the Orion parts I came across there signature pipe LOSR1950 - which is there version of a 2013 pipe

haha yeah I got a few....
the reason I am getting rid of it is I prefer the bigboy pipe...
the 2057 and the 2013 pipes are great dont get me wrong but I honestly dont like the durability factor and I got one of those lucky bigboy pipes that actually runs good..lol
but for anyone that wants to know
2013 gobbs of power and a killer sound not the greatest on mileage
2057 great power still cool sound awesome on mileage
2056 (bigboy) not a lot of bottom end (my style) good top and 12 minutes on runtime
