i was thinking of getting the a-5 i saw on actionvillage.com which is the a-5 with the R/T lready installed in it and ill probably be getting a remote line as well and i will run it on nitro most if not all the time so my question is will that setup be able to run the cyclone feed and r/t properly?

yes.  You have to tune the RT alot more to get it just right.  I prefer the egrip on the A5 but that is my prefference. 
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

I have a 98C w/ cyclone & R/T.  I think the two work well together on CO2.  I would think they would work just fine on HPA as well.

For my 98, I had to buy an adapter kit to use both together.  It replaced the 1/16" hoses with 1/8".  For my gun, it made the responce trigger much faster than it was without the cyclone.

The one draw back, it consumes a bit more air to power both.  You'll notice you'll have to turn you velocity up a bit, and you won't get quite as many shots per tank.  But, all in all a great upgrade that never needs batteries.

Your thinking of the low pressure line. For HPA you do not need this.
