If you're getting a 90 degree fiting, then your probably getting macroline. Otherwise, you won't really need a 90 degree fitting for steel braided, though you could use one. Your stock steel braided hose will work fine, but the steel braided hose that comes with Tippmann's x-chamber kit is 6 inches from end to end.

I just took off my hose from my gun and brought it to an automotive shop. Any hardware store will have it. Andd they do have 90* fittings for steel braided hoses. When you get there, tell someone I need a 90*fitting for this and they'll get it for you.

I dont Advise you "Direclty" screw in your hose to the Expansion Chamber.. Big NO NO! The 90* fitting helps so that your Steel braided hose doesn't get jamed up in there....

you may wanna just keep your current hose then see if you need to Shorten the length...

I'd just get the package, the GTA expansion chamber is only a 4 stage but it matches the contour of the foregrip.
