Just to update kinda, I ended up getting a chrono, and it's running at around 280-300 fps so I don't think that's bad and around what I keep my pistols at.
So I don't think I need to start opening the gearbox quite yet.
So other than replacing the hop rubber and nub with a mosfet how else could I liven up the performance, would changing the motor really change it that much.
Also another quirk I've found, it won't run on a 11.1, fires fine on 7.4 but won't fire at all on 11.1
