I had a Xt which is same except the motor and ESC.
I got a metal spur for T4, drilled a hole in b/w and shimed it to make it fit, no more eaten spur now..!!!
Plus i Tried two systems- Ezrun 35A and Mamba Max ESC and velinion motor. Ran with a 3s lipoly, results were ok with ezrun, outstanding with CC.

Due to so much power, tires worn pretty quickly, so replaced them with proline mashers 2000 (2.2). Very cheap ($15), durable, nice grip, and F Huge..!!!! almost 6 inches for a 10 scale vehicle is immense.
Next i changed the chasis on the car to a self made Carbon Fibre Chasis though it din proved much useful since the stock chasis is itself light.
Then i took some plastic kind of sheet (which i tore off from school desk  :P) and fixed it on the under spur part of chasis and under motor to prevent small gravels from getting to mesh. It is really crucial.
Next was the servo, failed in about 3 months so bought 2, one was the Stock, other from HK with 11kg torque for $11 !!!! also got a new horn
Other than that i changed front shocks since they leaked like pig...everytme.
sold the stock rx tx and used some cheap one that came with kyosho to get some $$$
I upgraded them to factory upgrade shocks (metal).

All stuff for TT with stock and upgrade available at www.rcplanet.com

oh and post some pics of your CF chassis.On high bite tracks,it will be good because of the stiffness it offers.No high bite tracks in India though. :(

Car is sold man, with surajhonda now.
And BTW the stiffness factor of both the CF and stock is nearly same. It was not hobby grade CF, it was the one used for making some windows sort of thing
