you can get it for the 98Custom, but I say if you uping your 98C with like a R/T or EGrip, then I say just get a Revvy or something instead IMO ------------- http://www.freewebs.com/outlawspaintball/index.htm - Outlaws *Sponsors* http://www.abrika.ca - Abrika |

100% agree. If you don't have plans for having an Electronic Custom, then yeah, the Cyclone would be great for ya. If you think about it...the cyclone pretty much IS a hopper. If you have an E-Bolt setup, or have a Pro E, then i'd avoid the cyclone feed, simply because it will restrain you to the cyclones feed limit...which I BELIEVE is something like 15bps...The Electronics in the custom might be capped at 15 now, but you never know when a new board or something might arrive ------------- Unofficial Tippmann On-Field Spokesperson -Bunkering Non-Tippmann users since 1999 |

Ha, yeah, I just found out this morning too. I read a post and was like "wow, what kind of idiot thinks you can put a cyclone feed on a custom??"....then I kept reading and...well, yeah, I think you can figure out how it went after that ------------- Unofficial Tippmann On-Field Spokesperson -Bunkering Non-Tippmann users since 1999 |

Actually you can't yet. Its supposed to be realeased sometime this month. But knowing tippmann, this month is not the month it will come out. ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

i thought we cleared up this problem months ago--the cyclone uses excess blowback gas to turn itself-shaduh -------------

Right. Hoppers that don't exist do not feed very quickly. |

| Is it on the market yet? No. Thus, it might as well not exist. |

Obviously my outlook on things is not shared with you. Seriously though, don't wait for the cyclone. Given Tippmanns track record, it should come out when the DM7 is released. |

That's what I thought. The fact that it exists on one gun does not mean it is any closer to being mass produced. |

well if not i have no need for a new hopper.....i just want it cause i
sometimes tend to shoot pretty fast.....but if it does come out....ill
buy it......other then that....i hope it comes out, but ya i just hope
it does

Here's your answer to your question. The cyclone hopper runs of extra gas so it will not use gas nor batteries which is an advantage. The cyclone hopper is not meant to be used for super high speeds. They are meant to keep normal speed balls from chopping less. If you want super high speeds you need an electro. The cyclone is perfect for any Tippmann owner unless they shoot a hopper in 10 seconds. ------------- http://imageshack.us">

so im tryign to deside between the eggy and the cyclone?? one is 90 CADand one is 120 CAD.. and i doubt ill buy a diff gun then the 98 and if i do it will b an a5... so is the extra 40 busk worth it for the eggy?? plus im not sure whther to get the e or rt for my gun so would that also make a difference ------------- i lost my strike.. good things do happen to bad people |

ok get the cyclone if u dont shoot over 15bps a lot. the cyclone in my opinion is the best hopper for ur gun unless ur shooting ur marker like a machine gun rather than a paintball marker. if ur doing the machine gun get the electro. and btw the cyclone doesnt use extra gas ------------- http://imageshack.us">

The cyclone is great on the a-5, i can't believe it would get worse on the 98 so i reccomend getting it. ------------- Tippmann A-5 Psycho Ballistics Double Trigger A-5 E-Grip (tweaked and resoldered) Lapco Bigshot 12 inch Barrel Remote (Brand unknown) Soon to come: G36c Scenario kit Nitrogen |
