The Jazz 55 is quite capable and with 8s lipo (or 10s A123) it is able to push Truggys (see video in my signature) and monster trucks with ease. The Jazz 55 is speced at 65A burst for 15 seconds. It handles by far more when it comes to short impulses. I have quite a few eagletree records with amp spikes around 100A which translates to 2.5KW (on 10s1p A123).

Having 8s and 50A is comparable to 4s and 100A -> around 1400 Watt in both cases (when calculated with 3,5V per cell). With upping the voltage you won't need ESCs with super high Amperage capabilities.

On 4s the jazz 55 won't have the needed Amps for your Neu 1515/1Y (2200kv). On 8s lipo with a Neu 1515/2Y (1100kv) there wouldn't be a problem (this is the setup i will be running in the coming days as my Neu 1515/2Y arrived today).
