Do the maths! What center diff setup do you run? Calculate the reduction, leave room for 2 teeth more and less on the pinion, take your voltage and desired (realistic) speed, and choose the correct KV rating on the motor!

Some center diff setups give you less reduction, so a low KV would be better.
An 8th scale buggs setup with Maxx tires (and Maxx diffs) would require something like a 14XL (or 1950/12 for example)

Just do the maths!
