T-Maxx, right? I've been sold on the Sirio. Part number S18TX. My order's going in in the next few days as soon as I figure out what else I want with to go along with the order. The S18200001 Sirio pipe at the very least. Since I don't own it yet I'm not recommending from experience but many others here will.
 
Sirio .18

I've heard nothing but good things about this motor, so I scooped one up on Ebay for $185 and it included two heads: conventional and turbo, plus an exhaust header and throttle linkages.
As the shipper doesn't ship outside the U.S., I had it shipped to a friend who received it yesterday. He is sourcing me the Sirio exhaust too, an absoloute must for the .18 motor.

I was also warned it takes about a gallon of fuel to get the Sirio .18 run in properly, first 4 tanks on idle!
 
thats cool. once u get it. tell me how good it is for u asnd how it was to brek it in.
