If u can sift through other people builds and understand fully what the positives and negatives are of each mod then go for it. Don't just slap it together and wonder why it doesn't make good power. I made 330 in a bf for about 3k total after buying some second hand parts and doing it all myself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
