i just got a flatline for my 98custom and i was looking for a few other upgrades does any one have any suggestions?..... i was also wondering if there was a rocket cock that would fit on my 98c with a flatline installed, and i was also looking for a mag or a new grip for the front.... my plastic one broke during a winter game when i hit the ice

  Next I would focus on upgrading you air source. I'd get an X-Chamber. This will not only help with your consistency and help prevent your gun from freezing up, but it will also act as a foregrip. I suggest that you get the DOP X-Core for 20 bucks. Best Expansion chamber on the market (X-Chamber for short). With that, you'll also need a Vertical Adapter, so you can mount the X. Both the X an VA can be found on www.countysports.com. You also might consider getting a new length line, because the stock line will be long.

   Then, I'd upgrade your firepower. The R/T is a great way to go. And with the R/T, you should also get an Electronic Hopper. You can pick up a 12V Revolution for $50.

a remote will act as an expansion chamber to an extent, but i dont beleive it will quite match up to an expansion chamber.

x/chamber is Definately a good upgrade your gonna want to get. it makes a great combination with the flatline. like that other guy said, after the x chamber you may want to look at fire power upgrades. possibly r/t or whatever suites you.

If i get an x-chhamber what length line should i get instead of the stock one. Oh yea i have a custom pro with a drop forward on it would that change the length of the hose i should get and how i should mount it?

I'm not sure of the exact length you will need. :(  I'd email Mike at www.countysports.com. I'm sure he'll know. And you'll need a Vertical Adapter to mount the X-Chamber. The VA runs from the power tube, out into your fore-grip (internally), allowing you to screw the X in into that. Then, you'll want a 90* adapter coming out of the X-Chamber (it looks better and runs smoother than bending the line), then the line, then another 90* into the Drop (you can use the stock adapter that's on there now).

yes they do. except x-chambers have liquid catches at the bottom to help keep liquid out. then they have stages that also help. what is really good is if you have a x-chamber and a remote line....like i do..

Yep, I just got my A-5 a month ago, and I'm ordering her Custom 98 Pro within the next week ;).   She was gonna get the A-5, but I talked her out of it cause of the weight and cost.

Sorry if this is a noob question, but does the x-chamber work for both Co2 and HPA?

    No, it doesn't. All you get with the DOP X-Core is the X-Chamber itself. You'll have to buy the Vert. Adapter sererate.

     ^^And fists, an X-Chamber will work with both CO2 and HPA. Now with HPA though, it will not benefit you at all. Sometimes it will hurt you. See, some X-Chambers restrict the air flow when used with HPA.  Now some X-Chambers (like the X-Core) when used with HPA will just act as a gas-through grip, not affecting the gas flow.
