Help! Palmers for A-5, what do I need?

I noticed my A-5 was chronically shooting poorly with it's accuracy, so I opened it up to inspect the internals. The Tippmann expansion chamber was filthy! I cleaned it out and went to reinstall it and I stripped the female part on bottom where the gas line mounts! I normally have more patience then to do that, but it was a little stripped from before, and me tightening a fitting into it only made it worse. Tippmann used cheap metal for this part, the male threads on the quality gas line chewed right through it with no deforming.

I am going to get HPA tank anyway for a different marker (girlfriend's Paradigm) but I will still often use CO2 on my A-5.

I want to replace the broken X-chamber with a male Palmers stabilizer. Male so I have a foregrip. I ask you all, besides the reg, what else do I need to make it work with my A-5? If I order it from County I will probably get a dead on RVA and a richochet hopper if they have them, I am open for other suggestions as well, to save on shipping I'll finish her off with one large order.

Here are photos of my rig:

This how I am stuck playing until I get the Palmers installed:

I would suggest a 1200 PSI guage for your stab.

Set the output pressure for 800 PSI.

The only thing I can think of is you'll need the right size hose. I'd recommend using steel braided, only because when I used macro, mine exploded. Maybe some teflon tape to seal it up. A gauge is nice but isn't neccessary.

An RVA and Maddman Springs will also help with consistency if you don't have them already.

nothing other than some loctite or teflon tape.gauge would be good.you might need a longer hose because it connects higher on a stabilizer

I seriously doubt you can get your A-5 down to 550 psi without the LPK.  The RT will start giving out at 700-750, and most people find their Cyclone starts skipping below 700 or so.  Some people have managed to get closer to 600, but usually after some modding.  And lower pressure does not usually increase efficiency.  Recoil, noise, and consistency, yes - but not efficiency.

An RVA can help your efficiency (if used correctly) but not your consistency.  A spring kit (new lighter drive spring) is essentially a poor man's RVA.

A gauge is nice but not necessary.  All you need for the male Stab are fittings.

Good luck.

The hose I had going from the X-chamber to the Drop RVA is the shortest I could order and I still had to put a bend in it. I hope the shorter Palmers will make up the difference and I can stretch the bend out straight. If I keep it at 800 psi without the LP kit is it worth getting a gauge? I will go with the RVA, so then maybe it's best to stick with the stock springs?
