yes, a few have melted down without the pyro. and as stated before, if u cant afford a pyro, you cant aford the consequnces of melting down the motor. dont do it.

well yay for you. just dont make a thread here asking what happened to the motor after you burnt it up. i just inform you guys the truth. it does NOT take much to burn up a motor.

Turn it up all the way? If u dont have the money for the pyro u wont have the money for fuel costs. Id atleast save up and buy the pyro if yr buddy actually convinced you that it is a good idea. But dont be suprise when you could have bought a 70 dollar pyro instead of a whole new motor
