quit buying 13.5s and get a motor that your not maxing out. Ive yet to run on a track were i felt i needed more motor than an 8.5 at the speeds and power the 8.5 is capable of you just dont have the traction to need anything faster.

gear it 21/76 with a tekin 8.5 on an rs in sensored only mode. toss in about 25 on the timing from 5400rpm-35,000 and turn the boost off. This setup is fast and runs great. again i can run mine pack after pack.


or if you want a MMP does fit in a B4 (pull the fan off, it doesnt need it) and just run a cap plugged into one of the extra slots in you Rx, no need for an external bec in a 10th.

run it in smartsense and time it alittle. the tekin motor like timing, just dont go over the top without being conseince of your gearing.





Another thing to think is that it might be your truck and improper gearing, setup, or build that is causing the problems. A nice smooth free drivetrain, and well maintained truck are important. Also gear mesh can cause ALOT of heat troubles. I'm jsut throwing these things out there because its not a fair comparison of electronics unless the truck is built, geared, and setup properly.
