What does a turbo valve do and what part of the gun does it go into? Also which kind of turbo valve should i buy if its usueful? Also stupid questions but what does bps stand for? thought it was ball per second or is it? just doesnt seem possible....Also can u the cp trigger be put in without the punch tool incase i cant find one....Think buying the lcd for my basic worth it? and does it the adjustable rof and mode of the other draguns?

a turbo valve is a valve that lets gas flow easier through your gun and increasind its efficiency and fps(feet per second.) the valve goes in the lower stacked tube between the striker and the valve pin. The tasco valve is a good valve for the money. And yes bps does stand for balls per second and it might be possible to go more than 17+ on a patriot or lcd. about that trigger pin, you cant get it out without something punching it through. the lcd is just the same as the basic but the lcd has high gloss paint, a fancier design and a trigger frame with lots of functions and features. the adjustable rate of fire is only on the draguns with an lcd display. all the other ones have one button and one indicator light. i hope i have ansered your questions and if you have anymore just ask

Well for the lcd, there was an addon board to the basic as someone said in another forum and i was asking if it had the same settings and modes as the other ones do... and are the palmer stablizers bottom lines or do they go where the gas thru foregrip is?

I dont really know about the board display but i would think you would only be able to adjust the rof to 13bps, you wil have a shot counter, battery display, will not have fire modes (only semi,) just like the PiE2( i dont really know.)
and the palmers goes where your gas-throughgrip is

If you change the basic to lcd you get a board and a lcd screen...this alows you to use all the fire modes and features of a patriot or lcd dragun......the palmer is a vertical?, hehe you know im not realy sure but i think it is :D

Yeah think i might get palmer instead of the board... so if it replaces where the gas through grip is what do i have to get to make it extend to the bottom of the the handle?

Do i have to buy a new vertical adapter? and how much would it cost? cause the other ones seem to cost around 80-95 and the most i want to spend on an upgrade is $50...... cause i already bought a barrel and an electro hopper...

Do u think i will need to buy a new va and a new drop foward if i buy the torpedo? and if it did fit fine without buying a new va/drop would it get messed up cause the va is a regular..stock..

naw all vas are almost exactly the same...the only real difference will be the angle that they put your reg/gasthrough at...mine is a 15* angle like on a black magick cocker....its just for looks the all work the same

The reg will simply unscrew from the VA it has the same threads as your tank dose...it would realy be hard to screw it up...but um here is a link to the spyder/dragun VA that ive got....http://www.paintballgateway.com/spyd15degasb.html

thats where i got my dragun.. $99 then i got $100 worth of stuff (12v w/ xboard, vforce armour, etc).. too bad the price is now $155 there for the dragun.. can be found for $115 at other places though

Well i already have the dragun.... did anyone else try out the torpedo?on co2? so it wouldnt get messed up even i have the stock regulator at the bottom line or whatever its called.....cause i think i heard someone say u cant have 2 reuglators going?

i'm going to get a torpedo for my patriot (i use co2 and air) and i will let you know how it works. it snould do fine with co2. just dont get the aa vigulante because co2 willl mess it up. you can have 2 regs going at the same time and it wouldnt mess up unless you stock reg restricts air flow
