Default Are motor winds irrelevant?

Guys, I have been into rc for a long time and I have driven most things, mainly onroad with X-ray nt1 and t3 so i know fast cars and I had preconceived notions about motor winds, ie 13.5 and 10.5 are for touring cars, 7.5, 8.5 for 2wd and lower for 4wd but my mind is now blown, earlier today I fitted a £20.00 tower pro motor from giant shark into a b4 I fixed up and installed a hobbywing ver2.1 esc with the hw supercharged stock software installed, I ran NO Turbo and 50deg of a max possible 64 deg boost with a23pinion and a new gens ace 5000 lipo and this buggy was ballistic, I am talking speed run territory much much faster than my 6.5 on mod firmware in a dex410 and faster than 1/8brushless buggy on mod fw 4s lipo so with the new advances in firmware it seems to me not to be a question of what wind to run but buy a motor and program the power you want. God help the newcomers if they are running boosted motors.
