Either will work. You will find fans of both. Matter of personal preference.

Yes. Main thing to remember with remote lines is: KEEP THEM WELL OILED!

Any oil made for a paintball marker will work. No9 gun oil will work as well. Through stock is a personal preference. You can also use a quick disconnect adaptor that fits into the ASA. The lines are coiled so not sure of the exact length, but they are plenty long enough. I wear my tank on my lower back and there is plenty of line to go from there to my ASA connection.

Good luck.

Well i use both... didnt originally plan on it though. it does make it a little better though. i got the xchamber first and got the coil later. if you get one i recommend getting one with quick disconnect and slide check, very nice features.

Slide check/quick disconnect is essential for remote play, IMO.  It lets you disconnect the gun from the remote without turning off the air at the tank.  Since the tank is likely on your back and hard to reach, this is important.

You will need to disconnect/degas your gun on occasion to clean, or go to the bathroom, or take a break, or whatever.  Without a slide check this gets cumbersome.
