Here is my current set up for my 98c: Tippmann 98 Custom W/ RT J&J 14" Ceramic Barrel Richochet Ak 20oz Co2 Laser sight
I play mostly woodsball, and money is pretty tight. I'm realy debating on the hopper though, I need one that can keep up with the RT ------------- Tippmann 98 custom RT Apache 14" J&J ceramic Black/green hybrid grip Broadsword vest Remote line Proto Switch EL |

| Yeah, the hopper is debatable. The rico might not be able to keep up. I would sell it and get a 12v revvy. They are only about $40 and they are can easily keep up with a r/t. Or you could wait until the cyclone comes out. You should also get an expansion chamber. Since you're tight on money, it looks like a regulator is out of the question. Get a DOP X-Core 8 Stage Expansion chamber. They are very cheap and work great. You might also want to get a drop forward or a remote. Just a few ideas. |

Look into an X-core, double trigger, Revvy, and maybe a Rocket Cock. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

rocket cocks are pretty good... but i wouldnt get the rocket cock II cause it sticks out so much... get the original rocket cock or go with a BT closed bolt system ------------- 98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun.

| the evo 2 is questionable. Ricochet Apache are only $45 if you know where to look. |

if your hopper can't keep up with your r/t. tone down the r/t then. this may save you money from get a new hopper for a while till you get more money. -------------  Always Bite the Hand

the Z-board for the Eggy is said to make it feed up to 23BPS but when i tester mine i ran three tests and the first time it fed 19.214 bapps per second. the second it ran 17.932 and the third ran 18.197 bapps per second. i got these results by filling the hopper with 195 balls and i timed the amount of time it took to feed all the balls. then devided the time by the amount of balls and it says how many balls a second it was. ------------- 98 Custom R/T Flatline BT Stock Tippmann Vertical adapter GTA Inline X-Chamber ADCO IMP Red dot Sight Rocket C*ck II Apache Attack Loader Armotech Zeus Pistol Laser sight Armotech holster |
