Don't even try it. I put $600 into my A-5 for speed and was so unhappy with it becuase of it's huge profile and weight. Get another marker.

dont get a new marker jsut becasue u want to play speed and have an a-5. if u set it up right a-5 is a great cheap speedball gun. get a small drop with an on/off and a compressed air tank. if u love ur a-5 after that and like speed still, get an e grip. then u can play speed where ever u want in tourneys cause rt is illegal in tourneys

I agree with bugsy, by the time you fully trick out the a5 you would of spent less to just get a b2k or something like that and have a better gun for speedball.

my team mate deric uses an A5 for speed, hes an excellent player, and has used the gun for like 2 years.

Higher end barrel, small drop with on/off. nitro, and your good to go!

dont get a drop get a unimount e-grip for tournaments that are not just at your local feild freak kit reg to make sure  you dont spike and get penalized nitro and lpk I guess they wont really help the tournament play a whole lot but are nice to have

yeah a-5's suck as speedball the whole fastest hopper speed is horrible <<sarcasm

all i can think of is a expansion chamber or reg

if u dont got the money for N2 dont worry cause a reg or lp kit will tak ecare of the liquid co2

but if u got the money and the resouces go for it
