Default Z servo motor in a evo

Do you think the steering will be better with a mini z servo motor on a stock evo board.

i use a mini Z servo motor in my evo and it is better than it was but, the evo motor was a little weak to begin with. if your servo motor isn't worn out already i don't think you will notice much of a difference.
the mini Z motor makes a good replacement for the stock motor. you can even leave the Z brass pinion gear on it.

this is what i know about this i bought 2 iwaver boards and burned a fet on one of they and i took one of the motors and put it in one of my xtucks with stock board and it made the steering a lot faster and stronger and if you use and mini-z board you will have to put the z motor in because the stock one is too slow

I'm not getting a z board yet. I'm just hoping it will help a little on the evo board.
