      they probably didnt have it set up right. I have shot many that havnt, and even my first imp didnt, before everyone complained about FSDO. it is all in the way you take care of it. and oiling the ram the right way is a big help too.

        its possible but fsdo isn't a big problem. so u have to shoot 2 shots to get'er warmed up whoopi. its not like ur gonna let ur gun sit for 20mins in a game. once the new WAS board is out we wont have to worry about fsdo anymore hurray!

          The AI Impy does have FSDO but its not so severe then most impies with out some type of LPR. The AI comes witha GV valve installed were the tape worm used to go. It works more like a check valve.
          The AI Impy is the best stock (custom) Impulse you can buy!
          I work with an adrenaline rep and could tell you eveything about them.
          Hope this helps.

              thanks for all the info but im selling my mag and bushy to buy one. its gonna be sweet, i just want some info

              is it the best custom impy?
              does the trigger feel good
              is there a better impy frame out, and if so what one
              is the WAS board going to eliminate FSDO?
              is this gun complex, hard to maintain, hard to tune etc
              how do u tine the velocity

              thanks..... I CANT WAIT!!!

                not that it matters but two of my buds both have imps and neither of them have FSDO. If you tweak the dwell and settings right you'll be fine. I actually played a game with my buds nasty and have a newfound respect for them. If I already didn't have 3 markers I'd probably pick one of htem up

                  FSDO is usually caused by the hammer shaft. This is fixed easy by buying a New Designz slick shot, best improvement you can do to a pulse for about $25. Now, not to flame, but that WAS board can't cure FSDO. Low voltage to the selnoid doesnt cause it to have FSDO, its the drag of the stock shaft. So I have been told. We'll wait and see if the WAS board will acctually do anything better for a pulse besides different modes. The AI frames are different then the stock Pulse frames, they are about 1/2" shorter and moved forward a bit for balance, I have heard great things. I also think they come stock with a magnetic trigger, which some people like, and some don't. It is a very sweet gun though. Here's a quote "That gun has MILLING on its MILLING!" Hope you enjoy your AI.

                    well if it doesnt even go out the barrel then you break a ball afterwards from shooting it its obviously not good

                      If you were going with a custom imp...I would say get a NICE rat....they are IMO the best of the best, and dont cost a lot. When you buy drenny, you get flashy garbage. All the drenny stuff really doesnt compare in performance. Plus, rat comes with a freak.

                        ok, I own an imp and it never breaks. It gently shoots 2 shots, I have in fact never chopped ONE time in any situation with my imp. I got a halo b, no vision.

                          The rat is nice, but i say if you have the money go for the Adrenalin Imp. I cant wait till mine comes. and yes people say that FSDO is from the ram shaft, and that the slick shot will fix it, but oiling the stock one right will fix it too. I actually havnt seen an AI with FSDO, because the way that they are designed. And from talking with Wolverine, the Impulse mod over at PBnation, and person of Impulse FAQ (http://www.kamworld.net/paintball/ImpulseFAQ.html) who owns an AI, i wouldnt get the Vert Max-flow for it, if you were thinking about it.

                              Having run across many impy's, I recommend the Strange at the high-end and the Rat for everything else.

                              Never liked Drenny's much.
