I strongly oppose putting the 540 6s in a touring car. I had that motor and acceleration is pretty poor in light vehicles such as my xxx4. Worse than my ss5800. Not that it's slow. It just takes a long time to get to top speed. It feels as if the car is carrying an extra brick. I know I'm exaggerating a bit, but you would immediately notice the lack of punch. For 2s lipo, you're much better off with a 380c 6t, which will will smoke the lehner 5300 any day in a touring car.
