Would adjusting the boost help in this matter as well?

since the spur is 48 pitch..do I need the pinion to be 48 pitch as well? Sorry I've only ran the slash with the stock gearing and motor, so this is new territory for me.
Don't go by that gearing. That is approx and it don't take into consideration boost and the rpm range I will use on your truck. Gearing is different from brand to brand and also from speedo to speedo depending on how much timing you add. I have run 4 different brands all in 17.5 at Bumps and all with the MMP only. I actually know the Tekin some to but what I setup 99% of the time is the MMP. Just put that gearing on and I will take care of the rest for you. I have 4 to 5 guys running slashes other than me that are all fast with my speedo setups and gearing. Everyone of them is faster than they ever been before.
