A guy at the LHS was talking this mill up to be almost as powerful as the Sirio .18... Can anyone vouch for this? He said this mill would definately put the 2.5 to shame... I just can't see it being that powerful in a heavy truck like a TMaxx.

I don't think that it has the same power as the sirio, no I know that it doesn't. I know that fantom is making an .18 direnct maxx fit engine. I have no idea how that one will compare with the sirio.

Depending on the port job they do to the mill, the engine could easily kick the 2.5's butt. I have an older Fantom geared for low end grunt (this means less topspeed), and I was holding my own against a stock Savage and have taken down a 2.5 T-Maxx or two.
The mill is part of the fun; the tuning, gearing and driver are the other parts.
