I have a Crono RS5 with a long square header and 9886 pipe and was getting 8.5-9 minutes a tank 8- yrs ago.

hey guys just after a new engine for my truggy whats every one running from nova or rex these days

If I were in the market I'd definitely get the Elite 8 from novadirect for 199 bucks.. No-brainer.

Edit - Oh, you're in Australia.. OK, maybe a bit more of a brainer...

Elite 8 or Legend .25
Both are stout, but the Elite 8 is my Truggy motor of choice from Nova, with the Legend .25 a close 2nd.

Nova 7port

Doesn't Aus have a Novarossi distributor similar to Nova Direct? I think they have a FusionX dealer too iirc.... anyway Elite 8 is a good one. The Fusion X7 is also a good choice for truggy too.

sweet thanks guys

Mito 4 vs Legend 4. For buggy. Who has used both?

Motor selection
 

I hate to piggyback off the previous post, but on a more general term, I'm interested in the differences in the legend, elite and mito lines too. I can't tell how the different lines compare vs each other. I would like to throw the virtus in there too. Then 4 vs 7 port and 5 vs 8 port. I'm looking for both bug and trug.

Is a extra long stroke vs long stroke, I'm interested to know also, anyone?

There's a reason several factory drivers still use the Legend and not the mito...

So can you describe what this reason is (without taking your gun out lol)
Adam Drake wins plenty with the Mito 4
Kyle McBride ran Mito well at Silver State
Jakarta championship first 2 places were Mito 4, ( legend was 4th )
Etc etc

The one driver isn't the other so hard to tell if this is the engine or other factors.

But I can imagine it is a price desission. The legend is cheaper to buy and in maintenance.

anyone use the elite 5 in a truggy and what r ur thoughts? also the same motor in buggy?

I have zero experience with the mito. I can only go off what I'm told.

I do have experience with the legend. It's a really smooth and powerful motor.
