i noticed that tippmann has now made a cyclone feed system that will attach to the 98 customs.
being that i have a model 98, it would require some modifications to the starboard side of the body, particularly a hole to access the power tube and valve. but, i am wondering if that would require a special low pressure valve with a port for the R/T trigger or cyclone attachment? Thanks for the help boys ------------- Sam I Am ; I am Sam  http://www.snypursam.homestead.com/m98.html - My Site

To answer your question: No, the cyclone feed does not require a low
pressure valve with a port for the R/T -------------

does it tap into just the power tube then? does it draw its air from the space between the power tube and the valve? ------------- Sam I Am ; I am Sam http://www.snypursam.homestead.com/m98.html - My Site

I'm not sure about custom's, but i know for sure you don't have to drill for the custom pros. And I'm pretty sure you don't need to drill for a custom.When you order the cyclone it comes with the new powertube you need to install for the cyclone to hook up to. ------------- Stiffy2008- 'wat is a noob?'

It does tap into the powertube. You're gonna have to drill and possibly tap a
hole in the right reciever. You'll also have to drill and dremel out your grip to fit the plunger. Its a total custom job. But its do-able I'm sure. -------------

If you already have a R/T installed, you can call Tippmann and ask them for the T fitting to use the R/T and cyclone at the same time. Also to use is with a LP kit, you need 1/8th" hoses and fittings for the cyclone to cycle properly. -------------

Model 98's were never designed to have RT's put in them. Do you see a hole behind the trigger for the plunger to fit through? -------------

were not talking about the RT or a 98c though guys. were talking about mounting the cyclone to my m98. i shouldnt have to mod the grip at all... right?
**edit-- p.s. i thought you were talking about the plunger for the cyclone, not the RT. ------------- Sam I Am ; I am Sam http://www.snypursam.homestead.com/m98.html - My Site

The Cyclone kit has eveything you need including a new power tube. You
will need to drill a hole in the right side of your of your
marker. I can take measurement on my gun if that will help. By the way nice setup. |
