i was wondering if anyone else thought it would be a good idea to make a cyclone feed system for a 98custom.  I would get an a-5 but i have too many upgrade in my 98c and dont want to give it up.  So wat do you guys/girls think?

First of all, search, some dude did it not but a week ago.

Second, the cyclone is a craptastic feed system compared to...oh say, a halo.

What Im getting at, is that its not worth it. Although some would disagree, they are wrong.

Its been done and it will work, just depends on if you can do it yourself and if you can get the parts needed without buying an a-5. But im sure it works great...

the sale of a-5's would drop too much for them to do that because some horribly misinformed people (usually people without a-5's) think that an a-5 is nothing more than a 98 with a cyclone feed on it and different reciever halves

A-5
E-grip
32º W.B.
DOP x-chamb.
psycho bal. 2x trig
polished internals
B.L. 1.2k psi gauge
ST grip adapter
32º bottomline

The whole point of the A5 is the Cyclone feed, so why make an upgrade for a different gun?

Because some people (like me) have a lot of money and upgrades in there 98custom and dont think its worth to sell the gun you put a bunch of money in.
