Nos

I own a Microsizer but since I am not patient enough to wait a week to get a Bit Char-G motor off the Internet I figure I will go to radioshack and buy a Nos motor.............Is this a good choice or should i wait and order a Bit Char-G?

the red ZZ motor beats the nos

It does? The red zz motor beats the nos motor

I've read a lot of posts that say the red turbo is faster than the yellow NOS. I get the opposite results. As the manufacturer claims and my cars show, the NOS is much faster than the red turbo.

the red engine has much more torque and i find it alot better than the NOS. unless you're dragging or doing alot of straightaways, red is alot better because you get a hell of alot better acceleration out of turns and such. NOS accelerates pretty slow and doesn't outdo the turbo by much in ways of top speed

I dunno. This reminds me of the every witness seeing a different suspect scenario. I went out to my track, raced two cars, both have red gears and one has red turbo and one has a NOS. NOS screamed around the track almost unable to be controlled. The red turbo was slower and I didn't notice much torque difference. The only difference I see is the NOS car was much faster and burned up the battery charge faster as a result. Maybe it's just me.
On second thought, I am running the RX7 body with the NOS and the Mustang body with the turbo. Both bodies have been made into convertables. I think the RX7 is the lighter of the two and this may account for the evening out of the torque. I should do this again with both Mustang bodies. All of my three cars are convertables now. Would be a more even test.

The NOS motor is definetly faster than the turbo.

i have all three of the motors in questiion and i dont have my zip anymore but my shen clone kicks some ass and i use the bit2.6 motor and its faster top speed and more torque than the turbo or nos i have read about people saying that the nos is faster and the turbo is faster it all depends on the motor some are built better than others.

The NOS is the fastest/quickest motor in my experience. But, the fastest might not be the best in your case- depending on the race course, etc...

On a similar note, I put a K.I.T. Hot Wheels orange 2.6 motor in my MicroSizer- They FLY!!!!!

the motor that came with my junky "thor" clone smokes the orange 2.6 in torque and top speed.
