Thanks for all your replies guys.

To the person who was discussing my stock ESC, I didn't know it could handle only a minimum of 26T. Well that's too bad. HOWEVER, I happen to have here in my possession an Duratrax ESC which I used in one of my other RC projects like 6 years ago. It's a Duratrax Intellispeed ESC and on the box, it states that this ESC's motor turn limit is a motor with no fewer than 20 turns. I actually paid around $50 back in the day for this ESC.

The only downside about this Intellispeed ESC is that it doesn't have reverse (does have brake however). Not a big deal.

In light of all this, do you guys still recommend I find a some cheap, quality ESC on ebay, and find a supercharged lowturn brushless motor on ebay as well?

Let me know soon cuz I wanna get my buggy upgraded ASAP! Thanks again guys!
