Finally got around to doing some work on the muggy. Put rpm arms, lst2 rear hubs and front c hubs and some new area al knuckles. Running 17mm hexes and some dish wheels with badlands on it. I also swapped the hacker c50 11xl out for a Neu 1521 1y. Motor temps are down about 20f, and the battery temps are a bit lower too, worst spot on the pack as 125, and the bulk was at 115. The esc fan comes on a bit less too. So the neu is a bit more efficient. Does not feel much more powerful, except the brakes are a bit better. I ran it back to back today once with the hacker and the other time with the neu. The neu will be staying in it, and I plan to put the other 1521 1y in the lst. Good motors, worth the price that is for sure.

So my findings are that the hacker c50 xl motors are about halfway between a 1515 and a 1521.

On a side note I tries a MMM/2200 combo in the lst. geared for about 42 with the dish/badlandss combo it did very well. I was surprised how well it moved the heavier lst around, and temps were very good too. I look forward to more 5s testing with the flux motor in the stretched savage. I have a feeling it will be a great combo in that too.
