P5XLT S.E. (truck)
well i had that in buggy first and the plus 4C (RB mod) in the truggy... in the buggy that thing was crazy i had power all through the rpm... but surprisingly smooth enough for the buggy.. no problems controlling it at all... so teh real test with stock vs H.E.S. was to put in the truggy.. so with same pipe, clutch and truck... it's stronger all through the RPM range.. which is even more insane top end... and also i was the only truggy to clear the big double on the back straight consistently lap after lap... and i pulled every one or caught everyone on the straight.. and im talking about all engines stock and modded..
