I have a Boost, largely unused, they're ok if left completely standard as with only a 15T HPI Firebolt motor it twisted it's driveshafts & stripped an idler gear, it now has Traxxas VXL HD driveshafts & metal gears but then it's not so cheap, lol. Also, there aren't many UK parts stockists, i ended up ordering bits from the USA (amainhobbies). Apex Models lists lots of parts but they're not always actually in stock.

I'd suggest something like these:
