Default 1800Kv motor, 4s Li-po, what pinion?

What pinion would I need with a 1800KV motor on 4s to give standard 21 nitro speeds?

Its a cheap motor and ESC! lol. I know its Mod 1 gearing and I know you multiply the Kv with the battery voltage to get the motor rpm, so basically if the motor spins upto say 30,000rpm (roughly the same as a nitro engine) then I use the same size pinion (13T)?

I can make a heat sink for the motor if I have to.

13t maybe if you were running 5 cell but that will be undergeared for a 4 cell pack, id go more up to a 15/16t

On an RC8 with 2650kv motor i was running a 14t for 10 min finals.
