Current 393, 408, and 418's have about the same strength and reliability. If you're actually going to race it on a regular basis, the 408 is probably a smidgen better. Otherwise, go for the cubes.

from what i hear and it swayed me that direction the 408 is the way to go more relieable and more consistant .

more cubes will always make more power with the PROPER AIR to feed it
