FOC is definitely worth doing. When you feel the weight of the gear assembly in your hand, you'll understand why(it's very heavy).

It's much better with FOC. chicks dig it.

I wouldn't do it though if you use reverse a lot. just wait till your reverse gears go out then do it. they will shred eventually.
