Whats the best roar racing engine for my 10 GT?

Here are the ones i am thinking about.
HPI Nitro Star Pro .12R XS
O.S.11277 .12 CV HYPER W/10E OFFRD
Trinity Sirio .12 Standard Racing Engine Threaded Crank

the Sirio wont fit, the HPI is junk, and the CV isnt powerful enough.

Go with either the OS Max .12CV-R or the Mugen MT12, u will need a new pipe and header if u go with the mugen, the OS is a direct drop in.

thats the one, go with the std shaft slide carb. u will need to cut the shaft, and do some linkage mods for the slide carb, but this is very simple. they sell them at my LHS, check with yours. Most places sell this engine for around 150-180 dollars.

if u can't find it at your LHS, u can purchase it online at stormer hobbies. here is a link: https://www.ssl-stormerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/seekpart.pl?pn=MUGMT12BSS

I don't know about the Sirio he has mentioned above, but I do know that you can put the Sirio .12 in a GT. My buddy has got it in his, he's running the turbo plug in it.... man that thing hauls serious a$$.
Off topic, but another buddy has got the 2.5 in his GT...talk about being over-powered! It's a donut machine if you're not VERY carefull on the trigger finger.

the sirio 12trp is only available with a pilot shaft, this wont fit any AE product

Thanks i will go with the MT12 ENGINE(Rear Exhaust) What kind of exhaust do i need?
:hi:

I'm not sure if AE makes a rear exhaust kit or not. if they dont, pick up the rear exhaust header from Mugen for use with the MST1, it'll fit. u can still use the current pipe.
