I don't think so. The Revo is what it is and is capable of handling that motor and more. You will not get around its indemic shortcomings however. All trucks have their shortcomings.

Doing get me wrong, I'm not saying the Revo is a terrible truck or someone is a jerk for buying one, just that its not the end all its sometimes made out to be. It can be a very good all-purpose truck, its just that its relatively expensive (due to neccessary mods and upgrades) and most likely will not perform as well as a truck that was trickly designed for a single purpose, be it bashing or racing. Parts support and availibility is second to none, and any truck bought today will be able to find parts for years to come (which is often a rare thing in this hobby.)
