Default Tekin 55T vs 35T

I'm thinking of swapping my 55 turn brushed motor for a 35 turn to get a little more wheel speed in my Wreckluse. Running a 87/20 spur and pinion.

Any ideas how much speed (%) I will pick up?

Any recommendation on gearing?

I have had two wreckluse chassis rigs, both with 35t motors. I was running them on 3S lipo, and with a 14t pinion and the stock spur, had good speed and could still crawl well.
Never ran a 55t, but my $.02 worth is buy the motor and a couple pinions. You won't be dissapointed.

I would guesstimate at least 50% increase.

As for gearing, drop a couple of teeth off the pinion to start with and then gear it to heat...
