So after scraping up some cbills after lots of grinding up the steep *** barrier to entry this game has (skill wise) i finally got a jenner D. I have seen everywhere that people put xl engines into thier jenners but for the life of me i cant fit any size xl engine in the center torso that holds the engine. I removed the srm's and everything i could but it always says i dont have enough slots! how do you guys fit those 12 slot xl engines into jenners with only 8 slots available in the torso?

The jenner is one of those mechs where you'll hardly ever lose a side before center though... Which is why XL is very good on it.

1) Decide your range. Up close or long range. If you want to fight in close, you then have a choice between normal lasers and their heavier pulse counterparts. If the latter, DHS is a good buy. If not, you don't actually need DHS at their current level because you'll get equal heat dissipation (pretty much) because the DHS/XL combo means you won't have enough room for all of your heatsinks. In short: Short range w/o pulse, get Endo as your last upgrade, and not DHS. Pulse or long range: Get DHS.
2) Don't get ff armour. It's too expensive to repair to really get more cash like you probably need.

Get FF eventually once you get decent with your machine. My repair bills range from 20k to 120k depending on how bad a match I had. I use all of the lightweight options on my -D and -F.

Me, I swear by the XL280. With that engine, you will go 142.x kph after speed tweak in a Jenner.

I am running
XL 280
Endo
Ferro
DHS
2xJump Jets
4xMedium Laser
2xStreak2
It's a very funny mech for harrassing anything but light ECM ravens.

I just made a slight tweak to my JR7-F, which left me with only 1 jump jet (I used to have just 2). 1 jump jet is all you need to a split-second 180 degree turn against that ECM Raven that just got on your backside.
I'll let someone else respond to how high more than 1 jump jet gets you. I have not tried since jump jets were nerfed a few weeks back.
Note I read somewhere that jump jets are getting a slight buff with the next patch (tomorrow?). I beleive they are going to increase the forward motion.

They are very handy when a ECM Raven/Commando are on your tail and a PITA for mechs which don't have a high shooting field when fighting them in hilly/canyon areas.
