Not to rain on your parade, but perhaps you should lower your expectations as I used to run 3 brushless RC18 variants, from my experience one would need a 3S on a 4200kv motor to make an RC18 really fast where it's just near uncontrollable.

4200Kv on 2S would be significantly faster than stock but nowhere near a 6000kv or even a 5400kv motor.
