Default servo question regarding BEC for which crawler???

Ok.... so my Ax-10 has a hitec hs615mg for the time being and my Losi has a jr8711..... I just bought a BEC set at 6v and am gonna install it on one of the crawlers....... will i benefit more from installing it on the hitec or not really at all?

what I am asking is, the torque is going to be pretty good with the jr8711 anyways.... so would it make much of a difference to install it on the little hitec servo for the time being until i can get another servo and BEC???

i run that hitec on my pulling truck and its running of its esc that only has a 3A bec and its never stalled out or caused the esc to shut down and i got about 2-3lbs on the front end of it and when its been in a crawler with a bec i had no noticable benefits. if you upgrade to a higher torque servo then yes but right now i wouldnt say so unless u notice the esc shutting down when the servo is in a bind

The higher torque servo is power hungry and will benefit most from the bec.
