W.A.S. is the board that Tippmann just switched over to control the E-Grip components.

The LPK lowers your operating pressure to Aprox. 350psi. the marker is more consistant, quieter, and uses a little less gas maybe one more hopper fill out of a tank.

Nah, get the APE board.  It's MUCH better.

The WAS boards come stock in the E-Grip now, so I'd just stick with it. Also, you can do the QEV mod for the Cyclone (search for more info) to make it feed faster. And I wouldn't suggest the LPK. It's a $100 waste of $ IMO. I'd just get a Palmers Stabalizer, and leave it at that.

^^I'd get the Male version. Then you just have to screw it right into the Tombstone adapter on your gun. :) And the QEV allows the Cyclone to feed at around 20 bps, inctead of the stock 16. And yes, the WAS is stock on the E-Grips now. But if you buy it from a shop, just make sure the one you get has the WAS, because it could be old invatory.

Don't understand the first ? but you will be ok with the E-Grip without getting the QEV( quick exhaust valve) . Your rate of fire should be capped to 15-17BPS or the cyclone will skip , but that is still plenty fast. If you buy the E-Grip take suzuki's advice and make sure you ask(Demand) that it has the W.A.S. board.
