What can i say guys, we are getting phenomenal mileage with the B5's, tho of course ours aren't stock :nod:

I don't have any stock Ninja's or B5's to dyno...I do however have access to a stock Speed and the new V-Spec....will be dyno testing the new V-Spec this week.......

I don't care how much you guys persecute me, I feel all the top .21's are very comparable to each other.....No one engine seems to pull the other when they run side by side...most people pit at the same times... I see just as many poorly tuned OS engines at the track as any other brand.....I see no advantage whatsoever to owning a OS over any other of the top brands...

I'm talking about O.S. stampted engines. I saw the ninja on your site but no RB's , novas etc... Only Picco made engines. I just find it hard to believe that the b5 will run side by side with high end mills. Stock vs stock or mod vs mod.

Every thing els has been explained in preveious posts by other members. To me it looks like your just trying to make a sale here. We all look forward to you posting the dyno spects of the o.s. engines:D

not trying to start anything but i know my Alphas will blow by an OS vspec or Speed.... and IMO ninjas are faster and all than OS mills, i like OS but others are better (and cheaper) than them. also Alphas are getting better runtime consistently than OS.... but im thinking about switching to OS, so dont take this as bashing please.

I don't want to keep fighting with ya dude... I know your comment is aimed at me, but its really not needed ! you win ! its over, I moved on and haven't commented once since

If you want I can arrange for you to meet up with one of my boys over at Hardcore.. I will have my guy bring a modified JPX,B5 or maybe both. You can take the engines for a test drive, run them back to back with the FMS, swap controllers etc. ...Then you guys can compare runtimes, top speed, bottom end etc etc.... Both the JPX and B5 make crazy bottom end and I am curious to see how the FMS stacks up down low.....The only way you will know where I am coming from is if you actually drive an engine that I consider has a great bottom end... My comments on trying to tune the FMS to have more bottom end should not offended you so badly...But if they did I apologize and really feel you need to try the mod B5 and JPX to understand where I am coming from... If your interested PM me and we can try to make some arrangements....no need to fight on a forum when we can put the said engines head to head...

where are you located ? i have mod B5's all over the place now, we can try to make arrangements for you to take one for a spin... and dam straights the mod OS have nothing on the mod B5...The only way to settle this is to try to get you together with one of my customers with a mod B5, then you can make your own judgments after that....

OS are fantastic, but so are plenty of other engines... thats my story and I am sticking to it...

If you feel you have a better engine already. Why are you making the switch?

because its getting close to time to get a new buggy engine. im currently running a JPX in my buggy that has 8+ gallons on it. and i got rid of my green head Alpha because i was only running truggy so all i needed was my orange head Alpha but i recently started running buggy some again so i need a new engine so why not try the new OS engines? i had the old version vspec and i liked it pretty good but it never ran quite right (got it used though). but ive ran alot of others OS and i liked them in buggy because they were mellow (to me)

You say a lot of engines are close in power, speed and run times. Still the engines you sell will out do them all. This is my issue. To even say that O.S. has nothing on a b5 is just crazy. Like I said before you MUST mod the b5 to beat out the vspec. The speed has won multiple chamionships out the box. If you compare make sure the engines have the same mods done to them or the comparison will make no sence.

im actually going back and forth between the 5 port GO and the new speed. not sure which one yet but one of my friends just bought the 5 port GO and im helping him tune it and all so i may get one of them in the end. Ryan Lopez is trying to get me to run GOs (he was talking to me last weekend about them), so i may run them.
