    Posted: 19 April 2008 at 11:37pm
I have an A-5 with the APE rampage board, Ttech feeder upgrade kit, the tippmann low pressure kit and am using a pure energy 63/4500 HPA tank.  I shoot alot at 30 bps and want to know if there is anything I can do to boost my air efficiency.  Please help!

Let me be the first to say that you don't shoot at 30 bps. The cyclone just blends paint at that speed, the only thing I know that can feed 30 bps is the qloader. Your APE is probably capped at 15 bps, or something around there.

With the techT it is possible to hit 25bps+.  As for air efficiency, there is not much you can do.  The only thing I can thnk that would let your tank last longer is to shoot less paint lol.
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

The only way to get better air efficiency out of your tank is to attach a more efficient marker to it.
