Well the MBX5T is assembled, and it's time to make some decisions regarding a power plant for this beauty. Can you guys tell me what engine/pipe combo your running in your truggys?

TTR Pro.28 with TTR pipe. Pretty sure it makes about 1/3 hp at .003ft/lbs torque. Barely can drive downhill with a tailwind.
got paint?

I am going to be running a Novarossi 528XS with a JP-3. However, the MBX5T is a good bit lighter than my LSP and I think most are running a nice .21 in there.

Was a Werks B3,but now a Picco P7R Evo until I get a new motor. Not sure which one to get just yet. Ninja, EB Vspec, Werks .28,even the draked trinity .21.

But I have used a JP-3 so far and enjoy the results.
