How does the 2.5r compare to the original 2.5? And how does it compare to the 3.3.

More powerful than 2.5 but half as powerful as 3.3. But in my opinion a more dependable and good performing mill than 3.3 due to the less torque and compression not wanting to split the rod like the 3.3. Although if your good with tuning the 3.3 can be just as dependable and alot more torque and HP than the 2.5R. I've had both and actually got more life out of the 2.5R.

can't find an accurate hp rating on the 3.3 anywhere and I've figured its around 2hp if that. The picco .26 max is 2.5hp and the 2.5r is 1.5hp. So the Picco is the most powerful of any of the trx engines and much better quality and performance hands down.
