The first two I had I buggered up on the RE. Didn't wait to get any decent components, so I'm gunna buy a new one and get it done, it should end up looking like this.
Armor: 583.1
Hitpoints: 583.1
Reactor Drain: 1993.7
Mass: 14387.8
Damage: 1986.6-3071.6
V. Sheild: .638
V. Armour: .638
Energy/Shot: 22.1
Refire Rate: .312
Should I RE to that? Or hold out a bit longer?

I personally would hold out for higher damage and Vs. stats. I REd a Borstel Disruptor to around 3.9k damage and around .7 Vs Armor/Shields. I held out forever just collecting as many guns as possible. Keep killing as many ships as you can to get as many weapons as you can or get a friend that doesn't care about REing to give you parts. I've been collecting weapons for REing for about 3 or 4 months now and I'm still working on REing another Borstel.
Aside from the low damage, it would still make a good weapon.

Already done a Borstel, had some damn fine stats on it too, but Boltdrivers are only Level 7, so I'm not sure if V. armour and sheild can go up to .7, even after an RE.

My current boltdriver project is looking like this, all stats are Pre-RE.
Drain: 1844 (Corelian 1D Servo Turrets)
Mass: 14011 (Taim and Bak KX8 Laser Cannon)
Min Damage: 1910 (Boltdriver)
Max Damage: 2977 (Ionic Pulse)
Vs Shield: 0.640 (Hoersch and Kessel Scorcher Heavy)
Vs Armor: 0.633 (Hoersch and Kessel Scorcher Heavy)
EPS: 23.9 (Subpro Tripleblaster Mark3)
Refire Rate: 0.322 (Corelian 1D Servo Turrets)
The only thing stopping me from REing is the refire and mass. The refire can get as low as 0.315 UnREed, and the mass as low as under 13k UnREed.

My fault, I thought the Boltdriver was also a Lvl 8 reward like the Tri-cannon and Borstel. In that case, I need to start stockpiling lvl 7 guns again after Meliya starts on Imperial Pilot.
I think I did IPW that had .64 or .65 on Vs, not at home so I can't check, but that was something that just happened because I had too much stuff sitting around.

Generally the IPW has higher vs shields than vs armor, and higher vs shields than most other L7's, but 0.640 or 0.650 Pre-RE would be exceptional.

Damn, that'll be a nice weapon.
Quick question how do you get a IPW? I've not seen one before, and I've just checked, none on any vendors, so where'd you get em?

The drain could possibly be improved, but I wouldn't worry too much about it.Ditto for EPS.
Also, Ionic Pulse Weapons can go up to 3.2k or so pre-RE. I'd look for a betterone before I RE'd the gun, simply because the rest of the components are so good.
If you absolutely can't find one to improve your max damage, I'd go ahead and RE it though.
Ionic Pulse Weapons are obtained as a rewardduring the Kashyyk Station quest line - the same one that gets you the AdvX/Vaksai/IG TIE at the end.

Hmm, at which point? I've done my quest and gotten my Heavy X-Wing, but all I got was a Nova Breaker booster.

You have to go back to Eyma (whatever his name is) after you wax the arms dealer, I believe. one conversation option continues the quest, and the other gets your reward IPW. If you haven't gotten it yet, you should be able to run over and pick it up anytime.
