what's the difference???
they use different springs and brushes, they are pre-shimmed, and come with their own dyno numbers.... a LTD version Fantom is basically like a "Pro" version, but it uses Fantom's tweaking instead of trinity's...
are they faster??
i always seemed to get a really good one (Fantom)... where getting a "really" good trinity P-2-K doesn't seem to happen as often...
btw- do not compare the numbers of a Fantom with Trinity numbers... they are based on different voltages... therefore they will look much different yet be nearly the same motor..
peace out... :)

Howie,
Do the Fantom's have better low-end, top-end (or both) than an average P2K Pro?
Thanks

Rc10t3racer, it will vary greatly from motor to motor, though with ones like Fantom's limited edition motors they will be more consistent from one to the next. You may still find other tuner's motors(even Trinity's) that will perform just as well, what Fantom offers is a way to eliminate some of the doubt, if you get their best it will be as good or better than about any others, but on average they may not seem that different..... :)
