| A part of the cyclone feed system for my tippmann a5 has broke! So I want to take the CFS off until I get the part fixed, but where do I plug the hopper into if I take out the cyclone feed system???? |

You don't. You cannot add a different hopper without permanent changes to the marker.
Any field or PB store in your area should have any part of a Cyclone feed system in stock.
What part broke?

The Cylinder line broke! I went to Paintball Wholesalers and they said they can't even touch my gun cause it will void the warranty and that in order to get the part, I'd need to send it to Tippmann and have them fix the part! I don't wanna have to do that! But the cylinder line broke off the bolt...... |

Do yourself a Huge Favor and get rid of the Cyclone, cause the Cyclone itself is nothing but Money Pit and thats exactly what I did with my A5 when I first got it and now I have and use the DYE Rotor on my AKA5, go to the Marker Gallery and you'll find a picure of it. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

Never had issues with the Cyclones on my A5's or 98. Always found them to be very reliable.
