Mark I like what you had to say about the P5, what pipe and header combo would you reccomend for use in a losi truggy-mainly looking for a smooth powerband and good runtime
Thanks,
Jason
Thanks,

Both engines tune and run very well. The P5 has a nicer port timing profile on the sleeve but smaller exhaust surface area so it tends to make more torque but the Plus 4 will out perform the P5 on top. The Plus 4 has better crank timing profiles than the P5 which will also make it perform better up top. Both engines work well in a truggy with the proper setup. However, a nicely modified P5 will put perform the Plus 4 in every department including run time and will last as long or longer than the Plus 4. My race ported P5 costs about the same money as a stock Plus 4 and will have more power all around, will be very easy to tune, will get 10-12 minutes of runtime in a truggy and will last 12 gallons if treated properly. My race ported Plus 4 runs side by side with the P5. I have both engines in stock in either stock or modified trim so if you are interested, shoot me a pm.

Jason- It depends what you consider smooth is. The last engine you bought from me was a GRP .21 with a non tuned case, GRP .28 crank with the turbo cuts and a GRP .21 onroad piston and sleeve. That thing was fast
If you are looking to get another one from me, I would definately go with the P5 with full race port and 9901SS and 41021 header for smoother delivery. If you are looking for a little more low end punch, the 9853SS with the same header is a good choice and if you are looking for all low end and midrange, the 41020 header on either pipe will be way to go.
