Well, the Tippmann 98 has anti-chop technology(ACP) where as the A5 doesnt. The A5 comes stock with the cyclone. I think the price is pretty close. There are equal amounts of upgrades for both. I would personally go with the A5. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

Having Anti-Chop technology doesn't compare to having the cyclone
system, with the cyclone, you don't need ACT because balls don't break. You could always just by a dirt cheap 98c and upgrade it by putting a cyclone system on it when you get enough money. ------------- Tippmann A-5 Silver, J&J 14" Ceramic Barrel Lapco Foregrip E-Grip GTA Double Trigger Pen Spring Mod R-5 Smoke Hopper |

As far as I have experienced with installing the cyclone on a 98 is that the cyclone does chop if you put cheap paint into it. the cyclone does break balls. so i have no idea what you are talking about. ACT does come in handy. but you really dont need it if you have yr gun tuned well. ------------- Tippmann Custom Pro-E Polished Internals Custom Mill/Paint Job 16" Rifeled SP Barrel A-6 Stock QEV Cyclone Feed System Chroned at 18 Balls a Second |
