As far as airsoft motors go, it seems that most brand's quality depends on what time of day the motor was made....
I've heard good and bad things about G&P motors, good and bad about TM, good and bad about guarder, and lots of bad about magnums.
But of course, lots of people have no idea what to look for in a motor.
Guges actually put up a thread with information on some motors on the dyno. Apparently the ARES motor is really good.
My G&P motors were great after they got tuned up, and I've never had a problem with the TM EG700's running with triggermaster SW-COMPs. (SW-COMP's make motor inefficiency REALLY apparent)

But of course, if it's a used motor, it might have been damaged in the gun it was in. I lent a buddy of mine a tuned up G&P M120 that ran great. He brought it back and it had a bent armature, sparked like CRAZY and ate through batteries....

I'd still recommend a TM EG700 though, I know from experience they are usually pretty good and can handle high fps no problem.
