Some Xmods Evo mod questions...
I'm covering a lot of ground with getting up to speed with the Xmods (specifically the Evo Trucks) So bear with me, I've got a few questions and need some confirmations. After driving an Xray M18 today (a coworker brought it in and I got to drive it), I MUST make EVERY attempt to get my Xmods Evo (Hummer) as torqued/fast as possible to even have a remote chance in swaying me away from going hog-wild and getting an M18 for myself (BAD idea! Wife would KILL me if I brought home yet another RC!).
At this point Punch is more important to me than top-end.
I'll start firing away with the questions...
1. Any recommendations on a nice punchy Motor? I've got the Stage2 now, but is it worthwhile to mod it (like with neo mags) or should I just step up to another motor? If so, what motor? I've been reading a little about Plasmtomic and X2. Some experienced opinions would be great though
1a. What about swapping out the motor wire for higher gauge (like 18 gauge). Is that generally a good option after putting in a "hot" motor?
2. I've already ordered 7 pairs of the Evo Fets (7329 and 9910, thanks Jazz I found the guy at ebay selling these). I was planning on doing 2x2 (bought extras just in case I screw anything up), but considering question #1, should I look at stacking higher/more?
3. To compensate for the higher power draw, and after doing the FET Stack upgrade...Is a 6cell Mod adequate enough to supply the power need? Or should I be looking at (or need) Li-Poly?
Anything else I could be looking at to beef up the Hummer? I've already upgraded to ball bearings all around and GPM Ball Diffs.
Thanks.
