Would anyone know here. What was the engine model that was used in the worlds by Adrein prior to the release of the WCR which is priced at 320$ with a pipe and comes in a wooden box. From Sirio's website the only engine that has the same specs is the S12 TUP..
I would also like to know what are the temps this engine can withstand and is there anyone who would have known the climate in Brazil in Centigrades.
The reason for the temp qs is that If i were to buy a Sirio WCR model would it be worth it to spend that much or could i settle for the tup.... AS we run at temperatures of 40C heat...in summers. Winters are ok for any engine. Would the SIRIO perform as good as in the hot humid climate here.........
Or should I just buy the S12 TUP, how much is the diff......performance and price wise.. Any good website selling the S12 TUP's in US ?
The engines used by the Kyosho/Sirio team were Sirio Evo2 engines with some special timing and mods for the worlds, and those are now for sale as the WCR (World Cup Replica) edition.
Brasil has tropical weather, so it should be ok.
Any engine can perform in hot weather, if it is properly tuned.
Actually in Sirio's web site there are no power figures for any engine. The specs on all 3 ports and the 5 port TUP are the same bore , stroke, etc. So it's a quetion of rules, either you run outlaw or you run legal.
