recently i changed out my powertube from the stock plastic one to the jcs red hot and my a-5 is shooting way loud, almost sounds like an ak-47 going off...i mean i'm not complaining about it at all cause i think it sounds sweet but could the loud sound be coming from the new aluminum power tube or did i install it on wrong for it to sound that loud?

I feel pretty confident in the fact that your paintball gun does not sound like an AK-47.  As a matter of fact, it isn't even possible.  That is unless you mean the general tone and not volume. 

Just an observation.
