If you want it to go faster, get another stock battery and a series connector. That will satisfy your speed needs for now until you go with the VXL.
Deans plugs probably won't make much of a difference, the TRX connectors are very good for current flow. Unless everything else you run is deans, then it just makes sense.
As far as LiPo, they are well worth it and very inexpensive if you get the right ones. Just got to make sure you have the proper charger. You should atleast give it a shot, once you try it I think you'll stick with it. Just be safe with them.
