There is diference. The R5R is the most powerful of all the 3 REDS engines and therefore very well suited for truggy, but a very good, less expensive option for a buggy too. The R5T has lots of power, but is smoother and more economic. The R7 is designed with buggies in mind, very smooth, very economic, will work in Truggies, but has much less punch than the R5R. I am using the R7 in my buggy, but on tracks with lots of uphill I might use the R5R, which I am using as well as one of my practice engines.
