![]() That extra length in the chassis gives you more room for tires without throwing the whole truck out of proportion. I intend to put some bigger tires on the 3.3 extended to give a little meaner look and taller stance. Now that I have it I realize that the 2.5 with the 3.3 upgrade is just as good as a new 3.3. I bought the 3.3 because it was new and I had to have it. The new longer chassis is definitely more stable. Out on the parking lot they are pretty much equal with the shorter upgraded Revo having a tendency to wheelie very easy. I find that the smaller chassis seems to be more nimble on a tight track whereas the extended chassis seems to have a wider turing radius. ![]() I find that the upgrade performs just as well as the new extended chassis rig, if not a little better. I have driven both on flat parking lots and out at the track. I upgraded my Revo 2.5R to a 3.3, and have also purchased a new Revo 3.3 with the extended chassis. I have both and will give you the straight scoop. I don't think you can go wrong with either, but when I started running the 3.3 after break in, I was liking what I was seeing. I think if you had a 3.3 in a standard Revo chassis, it would be hard to keep the front end down. I can't honestly give you a good comparison between the two, the 2.5 has it's suspension set up different than the 3.3. I hate trying to steer under power and it's not going were you want it, the center diff would help this. you get to install a center diff and rear brake option if you want (I like this). a longer chassis that I would beleive would make the truck more stable and keep the front end down better with the bigger engine (plus the whole truck with the body on looks bigger). I beleive for your money you get allot more engine. I have been doing this since the begining of the year, I'm still a rookie. Broken, Hey I'm no professional by any means, I'm not going to feed you a line of technical stuff that I realy don't know about.
