i was looking at the impulses and how they are going to soon be relpaced by
a newer modle i am guessing. as the upgrades for impulses become more
scarace and the ones for ions becoming more common, will the impulse just
be a waste now?

^^ Like my impulse, all it needs to be fully upped would be frame/lpr/board and that would be it for me.  It shoots like a dream.

The parts are not scarce.  The impulse was so popular, there are parts everywhere.  Since there are so many, alot of people selling parts used make them very cheap.

well one reason i am asking is, i am looking for a speed ball gun that does
not chop and is cheap on upgrades because i love installing them and seeing
how much they help, i love my 98C, but is it worth paying 75 extra dollors
on a impulse or save the 75 and use it on an ion upgrades
