Default Mamba micro x or Velinion 1/16 system?

I was wondering which one would work better in a mini e revo or even another combo.

The micro-x is a better controller, but the 0808 motor that it sometimes comes combo'd with is a bit undersized for using in a mini-revo. The 380 sized motor that comes with the traxxas system is better sized. If you use the Micro-X, Leopard Hobby makes a 380 sized motor that has sensors so you can get really smooth startup.

A lot of people get the motor mount that comes with the brushed version of the mini-revo because it allows the use of 1/10 scale 540 sized motors. Then you can run the slightly larger Sidewinder Sv3 and 1406 motor. Everything will run cooler and you'll have better torque and top speed. I think most people run either the 4600kv or 5700kv motor.
