Default what do you think...?

I know this has already been covered numerous times, but I thought people might be interested.
I've been reading up on Force Flow ESC's and they're looking pretty good. I'm just wondering if anyone else heard about'em? do you think it's worth trying?

here's a link to there site

hhmm, to tell truth i have just my opinion, that there's probably a gain but not much i'm guessing just like 1hp or less.

but if you think of it in money wise, it's useless.

but to tell truth my old thoughts on this are still in my mind.

but once i guess i thought of it for such a small gain of hp for that price is a rimp off, plus it would probably be needed to be removed once a better upgrade is put.

cause it'll probably just interfere after that.

yah it is just a small gain for so much money. I heard you can buy a small blower for 50 bucks at a marine store and place it on the intake, you'll get some hp gain... how about the turbonator? I've read that some people feel the difference, but I don't know. I'm just looking for some power for a good price and something that won't require me to sell a lung. haha

I already ordered my intake, and already have the cat-back. I'm doing the royal purple oil change and I got the royal purple coolant enhancer and that shit works. I don't care what anyone says haha

nitrous is your last option besides a downpipe/header if youre looking for cheap horsepower.

o and then when you wanna have some more efficiency fix the valve train, it's a big um, part for hp gains......but mostly for assurance that your car breaths good....and exhausts good.

...and some rpm gain.

HEY JUST TO LET YOU KNOW I'M NOT A FUCK'N IDIOT!... I thought these forums are to see if people have any ideas and bad or good experiences with certain upgrades. I'm just curious because of stories I hear from other upgrade enthusiast's. and small upgrades can add up to be a big deference. forget it, I'll just start doing my custom t25/t28
