hate to break it to you but e-trigger, r/t are the only LEGIT ways to make your gun faster. there are trigger mods that can be done but at the expense of your gun's maintenance. These mods do not always work and have been known to ruin guns. Anything over 10 bps needs an electronic loader. thats a must or you will chop like crazy. btw, 20bps is quite fast for a tippmann. possible: yes, but your going to need more than just an e-trigger and electronic loader -------------

| how much would just an electric hopper help the bps without the trigger upgrade? |

| you could go for a Qloader... its not electric so itl work no worries in all conditions and without using any batteries. plus its loaded with pods like the normal pods u carry paint in.. except the pods just slot right in to the loader, no need to open the pods n transfer paint mid firefight. have a look at the vids on their site ( http://www.qloader.com - www.qloader.com ) if u wanna see speed. |

wow that does look cool. it might cost a bit much though. do the cheaper(like 30-40) electric hoppers help that much with the bps? sorry i've never tried one |

Electric hoppers dont increase your bps shooting wise. They just feed at a fast enough rate so you wont chop alot. How many bps the hopper can feed at is usually advertised on each electric hopper. -------------

Yea, but at the same time... you are not going to get 20bps. I had a moded R/T on an old gun and it only shot around 13-15bps. Besides, Why the hell do you need 20bps? -------------

A Super R/T can get you up to around 20 bps if you have tuned the gun correctly with things like polished internals and whatever else you can do to let the mechanics run smoothly. An e-grip will let you go over 20bps but I think some boards are capped at 15bps. |

No you wont chop. If you hopper is faster than your gun then you wont have any problems when shooting. There is nothing wrong with having a hopper faster than your gun because then when you get a firepower upgrade you wont have to buy a faster hopper. -------------

No a response trigger wont ruin your gun, but if you try the super response trigger mod and screw up then you could ruin your gun. The response trigger comes with instructions on how to put it in and it is a upgrade from Tippmann so it wont ruin your gun. -------------

it is more likely to happen or you will dry fire in between ball feeds

whew... barley read through that. To answer your question the only loader that can feed up to 35bps is a Q-loader, no other loader is faster then it, but again... WHY DO NEED IT?! Edit: Dry Fire: To fire your marker without paintballs. -------------
