That's the ERCM Pipe. Robin can also get you a modded LRP engine for even more power. Here's where I'd order the XL from:

What's modded on the engine specifically?

 

[hamz9561]

The porting and the timing. Check with Robin at ERCM in the Sponsor's area for more details.

If your new to tuning do not get a moded engine , the tuning window is smaller in a moded engine making it easyer to fry the engine with a bad tune .
The stock LRP.32 has all most twice the power of the stock 5.9 .
I run both it was like night and day between the two.
all so add a good air filter like motorsaver with a outer saver to your order , I run the TMX80 filter I feel the SAV100 is to big and blocks air .

All so if you do get the ERCM pipe the side bleed will be less oil spray on your truck and pick up a savage X header It work the best the ERCM pipe's

Where should I order the Savage XL 5.9 from?

 

[hamz9561]

I'd try here:

http://www.amain.com/product_info.p...ock-1-8-Scale-RTR-Monster-Truck-w-24GHz-Radio

Amain is a reputable e-store and I've had good luck with their service.

Alright, so I think I'm going to go with the following:
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXDUTS&P=ML
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXDYER&P=ML

Is this the correct LRP engine for the Savage XL?

Also, what type of fuel will I need with the LRP?

 

[rcaddic]

yes that is the same LRP 32 I'm running , drops right in the XL .
for fuel , VP 20% his been good to me .

That poop's expensive! How long does a can last you?

 

[Nitro Nerd]

Most fuel tanks are 125-175cc. Figure you'll get anywhere from 9-15 minutes per tank--lots of variables involved in that, of course. From there you can do the math (cause I'm sure as hell not going to). ;-)

 

[NOS]

I did the math, the tank is 160cc's, the fuel is around $35/gallon. With 15 minutes per tank I can get 5 hours 45 minutes of run time per gallon.

This almost makes me want to go with an electric car.

 

[hamz9561]

Electrics are more expensive to start, but end up costing about the same in the long run as a nitro.

 

[chickenman242]

you guys think nitro is expensive in the states ,I got ahold of a gallon of byrons gen 2 for $85. after that I couldn't get anymore after all those crazy hazmat fees came into affect

:gulp: Maybe one of those 2 stroke gas jobbers would be a cheaper route to go in the long run? That's insane buddy.

 

[gt2racespec]

nitro is soo fun get the xl !! electric is borring after a while .

 

[gt2racespec]

well nos did you get nitro or electric?

 

[chickenman242]

I have a lhs that brews their own fuel ,good stuff too and its roughly $15 a litre so its not too bad
you gotta pay to play I guess
