(also, there is an upgrade called the vortex that replaces the ratchet or something and makes it cycle even faster.)

where do I get this vortex thing
1 paintball gun package=$150
1 case of paint=$50
air & entry fee=$15

it's a very difficult mod because you have to change the location of the cocking mechanisim...  i remember Jeep centerfeeded his and made it rear cocking...  it was crazy...  but if you want to try this, i would recommend getting extra receiver halves...

wrongo. the cyclone can feed effectively for up to 15 bps, which on a mech, regular r/t, or semi e-grip is plenty fast. but if you get a super r/t, was or ap board, etc, then you have a problem. so to cycle the cyclone faster, it needs to vent the gas it uses faster, which is where the qev (quick exhaust valve) comes in. also, there is an upgrade called the vortex that replaces the ratchet or something and makes it cycle even faster.

the forum isn't just for paintball...  and a why would a qev be controversial?  a faster cyclone would just mean it cycled a little bit faster, which is what the qev mod does.  it doesn't affect it in any other way....  also, you can get a qloader...

tech-t makes a rachet for the cyclone that is stronger and makes the balls feed faster then the stock one. and the get a qev and i bet the cyclone will go fast enough to load as fast as you can shoot.
Canadians do it on top.

Tippmann Doesn't read this forum, but the mods do. Say something and see how fast you get a strike.
