Is it just me or is there a contradiction between these 2 quotes from this thread? Not being negative, just critical.
From what Rody is saying this engine is an updated/improved GRP which makes a really good engine even better but it's not a re-design. I have No interest in a "updated/improved" GRP...No Thanks.. Ill stick with My Speeds...:nod: Thanks Again Ambros303... |

What you guys must not realize is very small changes in these engines make big differences. For example... Novarossi makes engines for a lot of different companies and many of the parts are very similar between brands, yet small timing and porting changes specified by the specific brand makes for very different performing engines. I never ran a GRP but know many people that did and most everyone I raced with seemed to like them. Some of them are still around and running so I think the quality was there. I personally think there are very few people with the knowledge and skills Rody has when it comes to these engines. Many things he started on RB's years ago is still used by RB and many other engine companies. The RB B10 is the same engine Rody designed 5 years ago with cosmetic changes over the years. The guy is a world champion on the track, and has designed engines that are 3 time world champions (sounds like a competitor to me) IMO he's not going to get back into this to bring a mediocre engine to the market. |
The Speed is a great engine no doubt, I have ran many myself.
But until you've seen or ran one, dont be so quick to judge. The things we're working on for the next year I think will sway many opinions of who Tecno Power is :) |

Out with the old and in with the new. The TechnoPower B01 will be powering my Mugen Mbx6 in the Rc Pro Finals in Alvarodo Tx at the in of oct. Im going to start doing some testing next weekend at Mikes In Porter Tx and if anyone has any questions please feel free to pm me or post on this thread.

Can I use a Techonopower P/S/Rod with a GRP case and crank??
|
Tony have you tested the motor in the truggy yet? My second motor should be arriving today.

Yes they are similar, dimensions allow the parts to interchange, so you can take a Tecno P/S and install it in your worn out GRP, like my comments state.
This was posted just yesterday............. |
must have missed that post...thanks!!

Tony.................I'm trying to get a small order together but can't find the pre-order for the truggy engine on the website.
Dazed and confused. :) Moto |
I have yet to add it, pricing should be finalized today. I can certainly add it to your order at anytime.
Thanks Matt |
B01T

We are working on the pricing of the truggy engine and Tuned .21, They should be available for pre-order monday and have pricing :)

yup, nice looking engine. New crank with wider bore and bigger turbo scoop + coating.
Will be interesting to hear/read about how it drives...i wonder if it has more bottom end grunt then the good ole GRP but still retains the same smoothness. |
Ran the TP motor today and got 10+ consistantly. I NEVER get good run time so I was impressed. Thanks to dylan fo letting me run it.
|
Good to hear.....
Runtime is definetly one of the biggest advantages of the Tecno's..... I've seen as much as 14 mins indoor and 11 outdoor, with my engine. And I'm not the smoothest guy on the controls :lol: |
this engine is sneaky...when you first throw it down eyebrows aren't raised...after running a few tanks and realizing how consistent the tune is and how easy it is to go fast with it you will notice that now you can focus on another part of your car...making you faster overall cuz you don't have to worry about your engine anymore......money well spent!
if you are in the inland northwest and want to take this engine for a spin contact me and we can set up a [email protected]:nod: |
on more day and my new Engine will be in and i can start to break it in and finally get it on the track.

Piston/sleeve
Hi. I posted in the TQ racing forum, that i'm a little confused. Is it TQ Racing or Tecnopowers product that will fit in a Mugen Ninja MR B01.
The B01 Part of the Tecnopowers product name sounds close, but, I wanted to know. Also, I don't see/find any available parts from A-Main for your engines. No Piston/Sleeve/Rods of the sort. I do see the TQ Product. Are their internals for the purposes of replacement the same for the Mugen Product?? Thanks |
Both should fit.
|
Piston/Sleeve
Is one better than the other. Also, again, Can't find parts for Tecnopower.
Same question for the new B01T. Parts and where to purchase. Need also info on which pipe work. Are we talking 053 or 083 or 2113 or 2024 or OFna P3 or stay with the Tecnopower pipe. ? Thanks |
The Tecno parts should be listed on A mains site for backorder soon. They should have them in stock by the 22nd.
|
Parts
The only thing Amain has are your glow plugs. Nothing listed as of yet.
Thanks |
You are correct, parts will be listed soon....
|
Pipe selection
Which pipes /header work with the tecnopower engine.
Also, it TQ Racing engine part of Tecnopower or associated in any way?? Thanks |
the TechnoPower efra 2034 pipe is going to give you a little better mid range power as where the TechnoPower efra 2069 is going to give you a little better bottom-end power and better fuel mileage. You can order the TechnoPower engine W/efra 2069 pipe set

factory. It's awfully strange that both TechnoPower and TQ will be releasing .23 engines very soon. TecnoPower, TQ, Reds ...ect., share the same base engine family. Just like the Novarossi based engines, RB,JP, Max ...ect. All the kids in the family may have different fathers, but they all have the same mother.:lol: |

It gets the job done.... but not the best for mileage.
I also seen a world champ win with a car with no suspension :D but that was 16 years ago :lol: |

:lol: I hear ya

Tony, I see that you are selling your TQ engine on
the "For Sale" threads. http://www.rctech.net/forum/r-c-item...21-engine.html Maybe you could tear it and a TechnoPower engine down and show us how much better the internals are in the TP engines, compaired to the TQ engines. To see this would be a great way to convince me and others, once and for all, that this is THE ENGINE to buy. If I can see the hundred dollar price difference, I'll have a TP engine on order tonight. |
