I thought it looked like an italian based engine. I just wonder where they placed their power on the powerband. Never heard of this engine or company before. I'm gonna start doing some research.

It's a NOVA...just tuned by Massimo Fantini...

like the JP's, well... perform & cost $$$$$ like JP's. His Tuned Pipes performs very well...but $$$$, which u can get less $$$ from other MFG.

RRRWC, got it right, they perform like factory mod motors. i talked to robert poage of ashford hobbies and he really likes his MAX. he has the 5 port i belive, which is based on a P5. and if youve ever seen a modded P5 run, you know just how sick it is.

I can get the engine for around 200 bucks and the pipe for about 100, is it worth it or am I better off with something else? Diver, this is for the TT, make sure you advise me to get something that is going to peak your spec engine, Ill need it for when we race.
