its basically just like the OS RG. the RG is an absolutly awesome engine. reliable, more power then people think, and super cheap to boot. i raced one all last season, and at the end i blew the piston and sleeve. sent it back a few weeks ago and in a week and a half i have a brand new RG. OS IS AWESOME!

RG's (and I assume VG's too) are all about low end, don't worry about that

How about top end? i needed a opinion because i found a OS RG for 105US shipped brand new with pullstarter i plan to put in a Hyper 7 Pro sound like a good idea? no bashing, but my friend likes speed, and he likes pullstarters. So what do u think?

the best pipe for an RG (and maybe a VG?) is the OFNA FEMCA pipe from the monster pirates... its REALLY helps the engine breath and makes really nice power

RG's are a little lacking on top end if you plan to do speed runs, and you run the risk of damaging them by pushing them to fast, but they're awesome tight track engines

hey ayk I run an OFNA 086 on mine (top end pipe) and I think it works great also
