It depends, what things bother you about the gun? Don't modify just to do it. Modify to fit your needs. |

well said. If you are 'up close and personal' type, I suggest maybe a response trigger or a double trigger. if you are the distance guy, I say get a longer barrel, maybe even a stock to keep it steady. If you like to blast away, get a remote and a big ass tank. Its all about your style. If your new, dont upgrade until you find your niche in the field. ------------- Custom Pro. All Stock. X7 Respons Trigger (X7) Coming Soon: XP5 Foregrip Commando Air-Thru Stock M-16 Carrier m-16 short cartridge. Looking to open a field. |

Farther, no. 300 fps is going to go as far as 300 fps can take it. If you want more distance. Look into the Apex barrel system. A nice hopper will improve your game maybe. You may not like a remote, they are kinda bothersome sometimes. You could look into some firepower upgrades, like an response trigger system. Or maybe electronic if you have the money. |

Ok lets be realistic. You play speedball and woodsball so the gun has to overlap both areas. That means r/t triggers are likely banned and the flatline would be a hinderance. No way are you going to be albe to shoot close to 20bps let alone 30. you may want to decide on a two gun battery (tippmann w/ flatlineand r/t for woods, ion for speedball). If not this would help. 1. New barrel (12/14in. anything JJ, evil driver, maybe a sp teardrop) 2.2x trigger 3.Reg ( evil detonator/palmers) 4.Electro hopper (anything but quantum) ------------- blame it on the irish.... |

Yeah I agree with TheHoff, I'd keep your 98C as a woodsball gun and put on a flatline then if you don't have a ton of money I'd suggest maybe a Spyder for your speedball gun ------------- My Gun: Tippmann 98C -Double Trigger -Flatline |

I would also say you should get a bigger c02 bottle but thats really up to you. -------------
