As far as I know you should have a 15T firebolt in the car, correct? If not, that is a good drift motor, I don't really like the 19T motors that HPI provides. I really think you should stick with the 15T Firebolt, if that is what you have.

the stock is a 550 can motor, a mod 15t is a 540 can motor which will give you alot more power. i think the stock 15t 550 is about = to a 19t-20t 540
