will the LPK work with a remote coil? i might be buying a gun off a guy for cheap and it comes with LPK and regulator . but he said the LPK doesn't work with a remote . Is this true? because a remote coil is a must for me.

I don't see why it wouldn't. You are still supplying the marker with the same amount of pressure, just remotely.... Only thing I can think of is that at one time, they made remotes with a thinner line. I have heard that these would starve the markers because they wouldn't let enought pressure through. Other than that it doesn't make for it not to work. I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure I have seen guys running remotes with LPKs before.
 
Out of curiosity though, what type of marker?

Ok.  I am assuming from the fact that you have an X-chamber that you are still running CO2. One thing I can say is that if you are running CO2, you will need to make sure the regulator can handle it. Not all can. Palmers Stabilizers can, but  a lot of others cannot.  If it is capable of running CO2, it will make the X-chamber pointless. 

If you are getting it cheap enough, it may be worth buying just to have as a backup.

oh i forgot to change my sig. I am no longer am running on CO2, i finally made the big switch. so i no longer have the xchamber. he has it listed for 125. the most i'll offer is 100. he has the lpk, regulator, rt, and a good barrel.. sound like a pretty good deal?

It's not an exceptional deal, about average IMO. All depends on what it's worth to you Wink  I can say that resale right now seems to be terrible on Tippmanns from what I have seen. Lots of em out there for cheap.
