XXX-NT engine upgrade

[MsclBldr1]

hi guys!

I am fresh into the Nitro RC thing......I bought a Losi XXX-NT and so far am quite impressed with the speed and power, but typical with me, i want to make it faster......as far an engines go, are there any bolt on ones that i could get that would make a difference, I'm not into modifying the chasis or anything....

any help would be appreciated!

thanks!

It depends on which XXX-NT you have, but either way, a new engine will perk it up. You just need to figure out what kind you have to find out what will bolt in without issue.

If it's a side exhaust rotary carb engine, the OS 18 CV-R(X) will do the trick.

If it's rear exhaust and rotary carb, this would make it a screamer, OS 18TZ-TX.

I can't seem to find an OS18TZ that is slide carb with pull start...

exhaust

i believe mine is rear exhaust.......it comes out direxctly behind the shaft that the gears are on (can you tell I'm a newbie?) hah

thanks again!

with this upgrade will there be a noticable difference?

I would think so... the 18TZ is a heck of an engine with more than enough power to shuffle a revo 3.3 around with ease.

Sounds like you have a rear exhaust engine.
