hyper 7, which engine? £250?

[bobcat]

could a few people trhow in a few sergestions on which engines i should be looking at for around 250 and will my hong nor pipe be ok or will i need a spersific pipe 4 the engine (for top performance) its a new pipe which is hard coated was about 55 quid from modelsport i cant remember the model? cheers

[bobcat]

yeah its a Hong Nor EFRA 3016 Tuned Exhaust Set so any help

[bobcat]

what about a sirio kanai evo 4, an could i do better than that pipe, if so wich pipe is the 1

[jordi15]

A £250 engine in a Hyper7? ............

Can I suggest spending a little less on the engine (£140 gets you the Sirio CL3B - cracking engine!) and use the rest to change chassis ...... there will be loads of Losi 8ights about soon as we all change over to the updated 8ight 2.0

You would never truly get the best out of a £250 engine if it were put in a car like the Hyper (great buggy most rallycrossers owned one - now purely a 'bashers' car)

just my two penneth!!

yeah i know what u meen about that but me and my mate have hypers an hes spent loads of money on his an its sick, my spec is as follows cnc chassis,towers, hubs, touque rods, front an center torsens, rear spider, cnc engine mounts, spektrum dx3s, orion vortex an that kanai. an belive me mate i recon that will give most losi 8s a run 4 it, any way about that pipe will i need to change it?

yup but you think ur 7 is a fast on a track as the latest buggies, even tho hyper are now on version 9
the bottom end on mine is spot on and i have geared up a tooth, it still pulls strong

as has been said, save your money and buy a more uptodate buggy

[dave g]

even if you spent a grand on a hyper 7..it would still be an outdated 7 yr old design im afraid.

if your after performance buy a modern car,they are much lighter and outperform the hyper 7 by a long way in every aspect.

the hyper is a good clubmans car and is cheap to run tho.

[Northy]

Two full buggys one ready to run one a roller and loads of spares and a starter box for £115 i aint complaining

[bobcat]

any way, what about the Hong Nor EFRA 3016 Tuned Exhaust and a kanai evo 4

[eb4_boy]

I would highly recommend the RB S7II L2G, as its a cracking engine for the price (£169 from nitro-models), running an Associated 2035 pipe (total pipe and header price £37.17).

If you want links to the above just ask.

[bobcat]

cheres m8, i was looking at the ws7 but il chec that out, an which do u think is better money aside

[eb4_boy]

Money aside i would say go for the WS7III L2G over the s7II, as it has the added benefit of a Concept Coated Crank and use's turbo plugs.
