For people like me that are conserned about the 5 cell mod on the electronics. There seems to be no problems.
It is important that you wire it corectly. My method was to cut the wire that conects the two batery holders and conect them to the 5th cell.
The positive end of the first original holder conects to the negative end of the 5th cell. Then the positive end of the 5th cell goes to the negative of the second original holder.
It is inportant that the original conection is severed between the two original holders or the efect of the 5th cell won't work.
To find the conecting wire look for the black wire that goes from the bat holder in one side with the spring end (negative) and conects at the other side holder with the flat end (positive).
I hope this is helpfull.

Battery placement

I decided to put the extra cell in the trunk. Yes the trunk, wht you do is cut out the plastic betwene the back bumper and the clip that holds the body down. you can cut out the pillar that the center of the back bumper. You dont need the third screw.
But dont cut the screw that holds the clip you need that. Then you may have to trim the bat holder to fit and you shouldnt have to glue it. you can only fit one cell there so dont try two. If you don't put the cell far enough back it will hit the spring shocks good luck. here is a crapy pic . I will try to get some better ones.

How to mount

Here is a pic of the holder the car and holder had to be trimmed.
The holder will just fit then put the bumper on and that will hold it in place. To keep the battery in put a rubber band around the body clip under the battery holder up and over the top of the battery holder and back around the body clip.
Also the lights should fit over the battery holder.

Difference
 
In a word YES ALOT FASTER. And thats only wih the stock motor. The other difference is that the wheeles sometimes will spin so fast the tires will come off.
