Evader BX - Going brushless

Heya guys, I'm brand spankin' new to the hobby. I got a Evader BX a couple months ago, and now I'm definately ready for more zip. After reading around I decided to go brushless, so that's lead me here. Currently the Evader is completely stock, running with generic 1500 batteries and charger.

At first I was considering a Novak Super Sport System since they can be found for just under $200, but from things I've read people don't seem to be all that happy with it.

Now I'm leaning more towards Lehner Basic 3100, 4200, or 5300, or Feigao 540 6s, or 8s. After that I'm not sure where to head in the form of a controller, I was thinking the Warrior 7108.

I'm wanting to try and get a system together that could maybe at least keep up with nitros. I don't do any racing, I'm not even sure if there is any racing in the area, but I've heard a few nitros in the neighborhood. Thing is I need to do this as cheap as possible. So what I need is help picking a good system that runs well for as little as possible. I'm completely clueless on gearing so I'll need help with that as well. I'll also need to decide which way to go on batteries. It'll probably take a few months to get this set up.

Thanks for putting up with a newbie like me :eek:
