Default Nomadio React + Servos..

Ok so I'm eye-balling the [link=http://www.nomadio.net/?pg=hobby.html&sub=react.html]Nomadio React[/link] radio, and I want to upgrade the factory Skyion 144oz/in. servos on my GST to something more beefy. I heard Airtronics servos are good but the strongest servo they make is only 200oz/in.

JR makes the [link=http://www.jrradios.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=JRPS8711]DS8711[/link] which is 403oz/in. which is rockin but it's $139.99 for ONE servo ouch.

So what do you guys think for throttle and steering, how much servo torque do I need to lock up my brakes, or fully turn my wheels (while on the ground and stopped) on my GST. Should I shoot for the biggest baddest servo I can find, or would a 200oz/in. range servo from another brand (anything but Skyion) work good enough.

Thanks.
