Hi guys!
ok ive been wanting a modded engine for a while now for my DBXL 2.0 which is mostly alloy so on the heavy side, i want more punch on the low end, mid to high end is fine but low end it does struggle off the mark. It currently has the stock zen 320 and ive tried numerous options including:
Different pipes (Olimat/Bartelone, 9k Clutch, Different Gearing, Modded Carb etc) but still the low end is lacking, so i had my eyes set on the Taylor 35 V2, which was meant to be released a few months ago, but ive spoke to mike during this time and the delays are due to parts etc, and again its now been put back for the 3rd time until end of next month, at least!
So ive decided to pass on the v2 as no doubt it will be delayed again! so Ive been looking at other options:
OBR Full mod top end kit: https://oneillbrothers.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=61&product_id=84
OBR Full Mod SS complete engine: https://oneillbrothers.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=59&product_id=60
AKILL 32cc V3 Reed Case https://akillracing.com/en-gb/produ...23638&pr_ref_pid=8192019923254&pr_seq=uniform
and then there is this: https://akillracing.com/en-gb/products/akill-engine-v3?variant=45123389489462 which is pretty expensive but to me if it means spenging a little extra than i what i was planning i don't mind as long its worth it!? I don't know much aout these AKILL engines so are they worth it or are they... meh!
So, there are a few options and I'm thinking maybe get the OBR Top end kit for my stock zen 32 for time being, then when the Taylor 35 V2 is released i can get that. Or don't bother with the Taylor V2 and go straight for either OBR SS full mod or AKILL 32 Reed V3 complete engine?
Also is there much difference between the 32cc & 34cc options as they are same price, will the 34 fit in my DBXL 2.0?
What would you guys suggest? Is the top end kit worth it? will i notice much difference in the performance of my current stock zen32 in terms of power/low end torque as thats my aim!?
Or should i just forget the top end kit and go for one of the complete engines, which atm I'm leaning towards the OBR SS full mod...even though recently ive heard of people slating OBR engine saying they are not what they claim to be in terms of power etc!?
Cheers!
