I know you guys are getting tired of hearing about my damn RS4 lol. I plan on keeping my .15 Nitro Star until the thign just has no compression, and then buy another engine when that happens. I'm not a serious racer I'm just a parking lot groover and try to tune my car for high speeds. I'm conidsering a Wasp .12 Turbo for the engine change or a RB Concpets C12. The original engine was side exhaust and the wasp is rear exhaust, I'm guessing I'll have to get an exhaust aswell, but will thta still fit with not problems. Also will these engine work witht he HPI 2 Speed.It's around $160 $180...Any suggestions on the engine or how is the engine on this car. I've read reviews of it on other cars and stuff but wanted to get a little bit more detailed. Thanx

well I've have 2 OS .15's and there alright engines but if u want speed go with the RB concepts .12 or .15 engines thats a awsome engine right there and recommend it. www.rbproducts.com :coffee:
 
man I'm saying this just because I wanna brag on my ride, the OS 15 CVR-X is amazing!!!! great torque and top speed easy to tune reliable drops right in with minimal effort and has a great price tag! :hi:
 
I personally say a Fantom 12 or 15. Great motors they will drop right in and work with the stock headers and everything. Check them out they aren't bad for the price tag. I've gotten good deals on the two I have. They even have some that are factory ported for a boost chamber. http://www.fantomracing.com/main.htm
