LPK, e-grip w/blade trigger, new barrel/barrel kit, a good reg, fast hopper, and air tank.

In short, if you don't really love your tippmann, sell it and get an ion lol.

I say keep the tippy though. ;)

Agreed, With the money you'll spend you can get a good tourny gun out of the box.  I upped my 98 a bit and use it as a backup/woods gun.

Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good.

i like tippy's for woodsball but tourneys
u should sell it and get an upped ion or impulse.

Your either woodsball or no balls...it's your choice!

Yes the ion would be better for electro tourneys.

If you have the 98, get an e-bolt or build your own...  It'll definately be able to keep up with an Ion.  I've got an E-bolted 98 that i've put together and right now it functions and minus the HPA tank and Hopper which you'd have for either gun it has cost me under $300...  Granted i'm gonna spend a bit more to get it exactly as I want it, but for an ebolt setup (including the base gun) that isn't bad, and it's a tippmann...

I wouldn't say 'keep up' with an Ion, but you could close the gap a bit. If you put $300 dollars into an Ion, then there is no question that it would surpass the 98.

quoted for truth

If you want to go the cost efficient way, not only can you build your own ebolt, but you can build your own LPK.

By doing this, you will have a sweet gun, and know EXACTLY whats going on inside of it. Its always nice to know how your gun operates...
