Buy a nitro bottle with a high (800-850psi) output.
That's all you need....

You can use your X-Xhamber, just it will not do anything, just act as  a gas thru grip.  You can do what fyre fly said, or you can get the low pressure kit and a stabilizer and get the full benifits of nitro by turning the pressure down.

All you need is a high output tank and you can use it without any other upgrades needed.

You can keep your x-core on it but won't help in any way, I would just take it off because its just extra weight.

is it worth buying a nitro bottle if i dont have the low pressure system in my gun.  also is the low pressure system compatible with the ebolt, i am eventually gonna get that.

There are 3 things you'll notice change when using the low pressure kit:
1) less recoil
2) less noise
3) less barrel breaks (not the same as chopping)

Your efficiency will not improve all that much, because the valve must be kept open twice as long to propell the paintball at the same velocity as a high pressure Tippmann. Even though you're using less pressure, you're using more volume. So they end up balancing out.

What is going to give you the most benefit, is the secondary regulator you will have to buy. The low pressure kit works the same with either C02 and HPA. It's the quality of your regulator that will make the difference between a C02 tank and a HPA tank.

You are going to need to get a good nitrogen tank.
