This Mystery Trader part is one of the best engines in the game, as it can reach Warp 10, acts as a Warp 5 ramscoop, and - most importantly - gives the equivalent of half a Maneuvering Jet without taking up a device slot (it's an engine). Eighths are rounded up by the Stars! engine, so this is effectively a free Maneuvering Jet for most ships, a free Overthruster for the Super Freighter, Battleship, Galleon, B-52 Bomber, Maxi-Miner, Super Mine Layer, Nubian and Meta-Morph, and three free Maneuvering Jets for the Dreadnought. Races with NRSE especially like this engine, as it's almost strictly better than the Interspace-10.
