A macro line kit would be good. Any X-chamber/reg and be used in the Vertical adapter. Good Luck! ------------- Cp critical Bob Long Lengens painball park Team Rendition |

yes the dead on 8 stage expansion chamber works with the tippmann vertical adapter,and every other reg or x-chamber will work with the v/a! I would get the macro line kit with 2 90* fitings off of http://www.countypaintball.com - www.countypaintball.com ------------- New Black Matrix. |

if you plan on playing lots of woodsball id stick with the braided lines. they are more durable and will be less prone to getting cut open on anything sharp that you may run up agianst...save the macro for low pressured stuff. just my two cents. -------------

Hi,
If you are going to be playing speedball I suggest you: Use n2 aka Nitrogen (compressed air) Cross fire tanks are good. A regulator Palmer sells great regulators which also will work with c02. If your going to be using co2 for a while you could get any x-chamber Dead on has a good 8 stage x-chamber. Either way most if not all expansion chambers will work perfect with the v/a Yes a Macroline Barrels may I suggest Lapco Bigshot , J&J Ceramic Smart Parts All American 2 Peice If your going to play woodsball the only thing different I wouls tell you to do is keep the braided hose maybe paint it camo so its not so reflective. The flatline is a good barrel but I would suggest one of the barrles I listed above over the Flatline. http://www.countypaintball.com - www.countypaintball.com http://www.888paintball.com - www.888paintball.com ------------- www.tippmannowners.com check me out there |

| if you plan on getting a air system, get the palmer stabilizer. that thing will do you better than an x-chamber beacuse it doesn so much more. i'd get the palmer stabilizer male version for your 98. all you will need is a steel braided hose, then a new fitting. good luck and welcome to the forums! |
