Engine Decision

[Candy_Man]

Sup I'm new to this site and new to nitro rc. I need some help on picking out an enigne for my revo. Trying to decide between the O.S .18 tm or the trinity .23 sirio. Can you give me good and bads on both thanks.

the sirio is a crazy engine , mad bottom end , you will need to get a kit to install and also a couple other things , the TM is a drop in engine , no kit required .

I can tell you I have the .18 TM in my revo and if I gun the throttle it will flip on me. I don't know that I would want a bigger engine the TM is AWSOME! All you guys with the 2.5 should ripe that out and put in a TM

My revo stock will flip over backwards. Dont really think i need anything bigger untill this one blows!

i agree, and why get to much power that the other components can't handle it.

see the thing is ,is that the other components CAN handle it , the revo is more than capable of handling a BB . i have run the sirio .23 and am currently running a wasp .26

I think you should go with the sirio .23, if you have the money. It is a super reliable engine and has tons of power. You dont need anything more than a conversion kit.

Yes, It's right. No conversion kit is needed, only mout the engine a go to break it in.
The TM323 looks nice:

[freez]
