any would work, but i would go with a 16T at the least.
that motor at 8,4V is just to hard 2 launch with a 12-14T, all it wants 2 do is do donutes[:@] on pavement.

yes 2 all your questions
your stock electronics will be fine with this motor on 8.4Vs.
the stock gear is a 14T on the mini-t but a 16T is perfered with this combo.
your mini-t will be wheelie happy on any clean surface, grass, rugs, and sometimes loose dirt even.
your gona love it
