a 13.5 turn brushless is considered equivalent to a 27 turn stock motor, although it is alightly faster. at 15 turn you would be looking at roughly 30 odd turn motor. the ready to run motor you will have will also probably be close in power to a 27 turn stock motor. for a truck something around 10.5 might be better. i use the ezrun speed controls and motors, the speed controls are really good, in a truck you will probably need to look at using the 60 amp rated one. the motors are also good, the blue finned motors (9t, 10t, 12t etc) are finned 400 size motors and from experience with a buggy, will lack the torque you need so you would need to get a lower wind motor and gear it softer, the ezrun motors with such as 5.5 and 8.5 are 540 size so go for one of those or a secondhand motor of another make if you can.
