| I don't know if this is the right section, but I'm wondering whether I should put the smaller hoses onto my Custom Pro w/ RT & Cyclone, I have the large ones on right now (don't have an LP kit). Which one is better to use? |

^^Yup. Bigger = More air flow = The R/T is more responsive = Faster. ------------- http://www.macdev.net - MacDev Militia http://www.alienpb.com - Alien - Because winning is more fun. |

| no! no! no! the RT dosn't use any air at all, or it dose but not any more then a plan stock tippmann. It uses blow back gases, and the smaller the hose the the less gas can flow which means that if useing co2 then you will have more freeze ups and less efficincy, If any thing get bigger hoses for faster better RT, IF speed is what you want. IF not then just keep stock ones there fine. |

| I put them on in the first place because I didn't have the right size T-Fitting for the smaller hoses. Now I have both. |

ya, big ones. if you have a feeling that too much air is getting through then screw down the speed adjustment screw provided with the R/T that mounts on the right side of the marker. however i'm not sure the R/T uses blowback... pretty sure it routes the propellant gases through the T fitting and into the R/T assembly. ------------- Sam I Am ; I am Sam  http://www.snypursam.homestead.com/m98.html - My Site

just call up tippmann, and tell them you have the r/t and cyclone, then tell them you have the LPK, then they will send you some bigger hoses. ------------- Setup: Tippmann Custom Pro E-trigger 12" All American BT Folding Stock GTA Inline Expansion Chamber Kit Dead on Pro seal Cyclone Feed System Remote Line Polished internals |
