i looted a lvl 10 110 speed engine but its mass is 52k
Seems like one for the heavier ships then. The bombers and the like. It will achieve a very nice speed though.

I looted a 114 speed lvl 8 engine. Yeah it's in my a-wing. With boost my top speed is 1405. 1143 without.
I can hit 1500 with my 92,2 in my Tie with engine overload. You should find an imperial to give you a few enginer overload 3 adn 4 chips, and a couple engine normalization ones. You'll be doing the Kessel run in 1.25 parsecs...

I agree, using a subpar booster, at 4-3-4-3 I hit 1548 speed.

Actually, most likely, REing this one with a careful selection of other loot will knock the mass down to a usable level.
The Reb Teir 4 eward is an Incom Tri-barrel, a VERY nice blaster with a whopping 48K or so mass... I haven't yet collected enough L8 gear to RE it, but I *do* have a very terrible L8 disruptor that has a mass of only about 30K or so, that I'll be using to yank down that stat. So something similar could put that engine into a useful mass range for non-bomber craft.

Even still, at a level that high, you won't likely get it down under 30k, so it won't be realistically useable in the lowest ships (A-Wings, Tie-Advanced, etc). It may be useable, but at sacrifices.

2 friends on ahazi looted - one at 103 - the other at 107 - the best ive crafted is 84 mark v which completly sucks
resources resources resources.... I doubt the best resources to max the theoretical experimentation value were used in the creation of the above stated engine. Plus the new engine changes will help too, can't even remember what they were but know they will help, check the update notes / tc info for more information.

Fastest I've seen looted was 110 for fresh loot. Another person on my server looted a 103 or something, and the bonus kicked it up to 110 when REing.

110 loot from Kessel
Will be even more interesting when REed.

My X-wing hits 1600 with a looted 102 spd engine (27k mass), engine overload 4 and a not so good (low mass & reactor drain) booster.

Crafting 101.7 speed Mk V engine after patch now. With room for improvement in using better new JTL resources.
Have fun
