If it came with the XL-5, you got the good slipper. The alumnium idler gear is a good idea, but i never liked the idea of steel and alumnium together and the potential damage to the diff gear, so i'm working on a traxxas SRT that i'm setting up with the new slipper and a delrin top gear as well as the alumnium idler. I think it will be a better deal than steel and alumnium together.

Edit: The RPM knuckles and rear hubs are a nessessary investment as i went through 5x8mm bearings like nothing with a brushed motor, brushless will rip them apart. I would suggest getting them first, because wether you go brushless sooner or later, you'll need them sooner, Trust me, i know
