any thoughts?

thanks

Quattrini kits are insanely good but expensive. If you slay a piston it's hard to get a new one.
But excellent. My friend has one sitting on his shelf needing to be installed.
Cam lam description sux
You can easily get 24 hp from these. these kits need full setup
SIP has better description and setup guide

30.4 hp M1X

Onboard with M1x

Parmakit produce a few nice kits at half the price if your looking,only mention as a friend doesnt like his quatrini over his parma

I own that kit and it is a beast, though my next one will be a Parma. I want to experiment with water cooling.

Yes parmakit 172 is nice

many thanks guys will pass on the info

172 parmakit on a vespa? aint that for the auto engines

177cc or the big boy 187cc with a 60mm crank,think there's another parma just come out close to 200cc on 125cc cases

a mate swears by his parmakit 177cc for perfomance/cost over his quatrinni costing twice as much after a good exhaust

I assumed - perhaps wrongly - that the Quattrini would shit all over the Parmakit. Do you know what his Parma is getting performance wise as a percentage of the Quattrini's? Not that I'll be buying either any time soon but I'd like to know.

Not much power info

Here is a Parmakit install thread
Tuning my PX 125 (Parmakit 177 2014) now to 221 Malossi 2016

I agree mate I thought the quatrinni would of been the one to go for but suppose it depends what your after and if you've built it right

both engines sound nothing like the typical malossi,polini,dr tractors and they go like the clappers,first time I saw a vespa pull power wheelies on his parma

he said for the money the parmakit wins hands down,could be down to luck when setting up an engine,who knows

also not sure which quattrini he was using,there is a direct port and rotary isn't there? sure he was on a mazz 57mm crank/aircooled 177cc parma though and it sounded like a wasp on a mission

very interesting thanks mate
