It will depend on your budget and what you plan on doing with the car. There are a lot of great upgrades for the XB.

Killer bee is a Must and first upgrade as with any largrscale. Then after that just upgrade if something breaks

The links on the left of the page offer great hop up parts.

Baja wheel adapters and tires are a good thing to look into.

Wait an see how it holds up...

I'd start shopping for bearings at a bulk price, a set of ten from ebay is alot cheaper [better quality] than buying the same from redcat...

The stock bearing don't seem to last.

If you run in dusty dirt, air filter upgrade, and outer wear will help.

+1 on the killer b switch, very important!

A runaway 1/5 car can be bad

Also start looking for a exaust pipe to wake the engine up.

Where I can find the killer switch???

For pipe I will talk with Ercm to make one for me.

Can I have a link for the bearings???
