New engine for 8ight-T

Hello, this is my first post on this forum. I killed my 454 on 8ight-t 2.0 rtr and I'm looking for a new nitro engine. But there is not many options for me to buy.(because of my country)

My options.

Force .36
Force .28
Hobao Force .28(rpm and hp is different)
New 454
Trx 3.3
hpi K5.9


Also i can buy NOVAROSSI PLUS 28-7 RT but its too expensive. I now this is better than others but , i want to listen your advices about others.

So if you have these options for your 8ight-T which one will you buy?

Ty for answers

out of those options, i would get another losi 454. there all decent motors. but i think the 454 is a step above. i do like the force .28 tho. i have one in my ofna buggy.
 
Save a little more $$ and get the Nova, you won’t be disappointed in the extra cash you spend or the extra time it takes to save the difference.
 
may I ask what kind of life you got out of the original motor?
 
If you're looking for a motor on the cheap I would get the ofna force .28. It's been good to me in the dm1 spec that I have.
 
I'll probably sell my esc's and motors to buy novarossi, thank you for answers.
