Finally getting a Revo

It already has a crappy 2000kv XL motor in there so Im going to use that for as long as I can. I think Im not going to worry about getting it running quickly but take my time and do it right the first time. Now I just need to decide if Im going to stick with the Conversion or go the alternate route. Im leaning toward the Conversion because Ill be able to run 5s which would save me money on batteries in the long run and I doubt I will notice any issues with balance. How is the Tekno conversion?
