I dont think you really need a extra servo, one of mine has one and can't tell any difference
 
Also the center diff is something I see some people who race like but if you want to bash and ride wheelies then I think most people don't install it or take it out once installed. But if you put a lipo in it I'm sure it may still ride wheelies with the center diff in.
