I might be able to make it now with a gun, if it arrives in time. ( Damn you Hensel, my wife is going to crush my balls!)

Don't waste you rmoney on that one, it's a nice unit yes but you can build your own mosfet system for about $10 or less. I did mine for $6 This is the guide I used to do it. CLICKY It makes a pretty noticable difference, very quick crisp response.
I have a couple of the P channel mosfets if you want to make it active breaking but I ran out of N channel mosfets. The link to them is in that thread, from digi-key.com. I'd like a couple more myself so if you want to do an order for one lemme know.
Shims I have some left, your welcome to what I have if it'll help.

You shim it to get proper mesh in the gears. Stock the gears will float inside the case side to side. Can cause bad things to happen, specially if you start bumping up voltage. The O-ring that comes in most is a very loose fit, proper size O-ring and proper lube makes a noticable improvement. What gun you getting?

This is the one I'm getting Jason http://shortyusa.com/index.html?RID=4328 I thought it would be a good gun to start with, so I didn't have to modify it at all. You'll have to give me some tips on which gun lube, if it's something other than 100%silicone, and how to get the most out it.

I read on a site today that you can use 5-15 weight RC shock oil for the seals and what not.

Which gun did you get? that page just pulled up a page index???

OK, so I have been home today for 5 hours and have been looking at nothing else but what gun I want to get! My wife is going to kill me when I tell her that I want to get one. Might not have it in time for the next game, but hope to have one soon. Way too many choices and decision to make on what to get. I used to play a couple years ago, now I wish I would have never sold my Classic Army full metal M4.
