I have one of the 2.5 Jtec extras that I am going to be putting together this winter. I was originally going to put a DA or DL 50 in it based on the recommendation by AL. He said that if I used the Carbon gear and switched out the wing tubes for Carbon that I should be able to get the plane to about 18lbs with a 50. I feel that this is very doable after looking at the airframe and at that weight it should a very nice performing airplane.
