the cyclone works fine with hpa. actually, i recomend it. the only problems that occur with the cyclone (hpa or co2) is the rachet. its the clear peace that rotates the star. its made of a plastic-ish material, and its "racheted" with a metal rod, the rod starts to wear on the ratchet a bit. |

The plate thing is correct - you need updates #1 and #2 from Tippmann for your Cyclone. Update #1 is the clear ratchet, update #2 is the new bottomplate to stop the clear ratchet from wearing. The new bottomplates have an "A" stamped on the bottom. Both updates are free from Tippmann.

Isnt someone making the ratchet out of aluminum? I heard you can get metal ones.

the a isnt hard to find, its right on the bottom plate near the pump rod. just look at the bottom of your cyclone and you'll see it

CO2 tank pressure varies, but a full tank can often be 900-1000psi. Nitro tanks are more consistent, and usually set at 850, but some tanks are set at 800 or 750psi (Crossfire is 750, I think, for instance). That is plenty pressure to run your gun, but it makes sweetspotting harder. If you go nitro you should look for a tank with 850 psi to maximize your sweetspot, and then you can visit www.a5ownersgroup.com for some DIY trigger jobs to help more as well. But yes - it is usually easier to sweetspot with CO2. But with nitro you can sustain longer bursts.
