Here is my 98c:
Tell me what you think about it. If you have any comments about the cyclone being "too bulky" or "looking stupid", please keep them to yourself. I am not going to buy any more upgrades. I have enough as it is. I may mill off the rear sight and letters though. Any other ideas? |

| 6/10 Its good, but i have seen better in this forum. If i wanted to see a stock tippmann (besides the cyclone), i could walk to my bedroom and look at one on the wall. Im sure 75% of this forum could do the same. No gigs on the cyclone though. |

| My bad, I forgot the specs. It is not a stock 98c with a cyclone as you assumed. I also have a r/t and J&J ceramic. I don't really care about what people think about the upgrades. Some people may say that it is not enough and I should pile $600 into my gun. I don't need that. I just paintball in the woods on the weekends, nothing serious. |

Didn't you have a gun with an Ion grip on it?

| That is why I am asking you if you had any ideas. What do you want to see to make it so it is not plain? I don't think I want to give it a paintjob. I like the black especially for woodsball. |

two questions: 1. howsa cyclone workin for ya. i wanna get one, but im too lazy to search info in the forums... 2. is a j&j all that good for 40$? its cheaper than my tippmann werks, and it sucks! once again, i want one, but am too lazy to search. also, pretty coo'. you dont need anything more. unless you run co2, then you might want an x-chamber or remote. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

1.The cyclone works great. I love it and it keeps up with my r/t easily. I am going to go paintballing this weekend so hopefully it will meet up with my expectatations. 2.The J&J is also awsome. It is cheap and accurate. I am pretty sure that it would be better than a werks. |

I would suggest Palmers or X chamber or HPA. If you only play in the
woods on weekend you dont need to put in 600$ on ur gun. Oh yeah and I
heard the Ricochet R5 Hopper is better than the normal hopper. It's
prolly worth the 10$ so I suggest that too. |

| I am not getting anymore upgrades. That means nothing that costs more than $10. I need ideas for modding. I guess I will have to think about what I want to do a little more. I have all the necessary tools. |

| I think it would look better w/ the r5. Other than that, cheap upgrades, 2x trig or rocket cock. |

| Thank you for your kind words. Last time I checked, woodsballing wasn't a fashion show. |

I dont think it looks bad at all. ANd yes it is woodsball so you dont want to be worrying about batteris and all that in the woods.
The R5 Would def make it look better and its only 10$.(9.99$) |

cool. You could get stickies. It would give your marker a little bit of color, but wouldn't detract from the black. I guess you could look into some trigger mods? ------------- NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil. |

Actually, the cyclone is shorter than the stock hopper. It just looks taller.

Call tippmann and tell them you got a lpk, and say you have the r/t. They will send you bigger hoses for the r/t, hence giving you the "super r/t" I don't know for sure what it does, all I know is that it's sweet. Someone want to fill him in on what it does(and me)? -------------

super r/t is the same as the regular r/t, except more air is getting to the reset mechanism, making it reset faster, thus increasing the bounce affect and bps. i think. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

I don't think the cyclone would keep up with the super r/t. I don't have the money to buy all the paint, too. |
