I ran the IDM evo3 and Picco evo3 together last year swapping between races, they are the same engine except for the picco was not modded, but the EDO Moddified should be probably the same as the IDM. As far as the engines lasting, you cannot find better materials that these engines are made from. Both engines looked and measured identical with very little wear to components. Not as fast as a Nova 35 plus, but faster than the Kangaroo, Very compeditive for the price.
