AND, its a best case scenario (you're on the line). If you tossed a 5 turn motor into your buggy, and wired up your RS right out of the box... You wouldn't get 2 minutes out of it before it thermaled.

The problem with the Tekins isn't even their motor limits, it's with their power delivery. Toss your 7.5 in and wire up a Tekin RS pro and drive it... then swap in an LRP v2... you will notice a dramatically smoother power delivery with the LRP, and that it was ultimatly matters when running mod, not how "tunable" the speedo is.... "tunable" is what you need when running a spec'd motor with dynamic timing allowed. It just isn't that important in offroad. I run a 9.5 in mod buggy, and my LRP is set to zeros across the board, right of the box settings. Because they are the least agressive/smoothest settigns.. thats all you need. Need more power? ... run more motor.
