Im thinking about buying a beams engine for my st202 in the near furture.
Is it diffcult to make the change or is it ready to put in :-p? Anything i need to change or what so ever? Harness, gearbox or something? Is it a better motor than the 2.0 that i allready have? Rene -------------------- [font=CELICA FOREVER][/font]

The work to swap in a 3S-GTE is essentially the same as a 3S-GE. You will need a couple of small parts extra (gauges, boost controller, etc.) but the swap itself really isn't any different. But going from a 3S-GE to a 3S-GE BEAMS is a lot of money for only nominal gains. Same cost, same difficulty, yet the 3S-GTE provides loads more power and the ability to easily get more any time you want it.
