for the vapor package it would be a little tough considering you'd need to do some modding to get the fmd on there, i'm not to sure on whats enatailed theres a few guys who have it, ask them :)

First of all, how is the BKO shooting in stock form for you? Are you happy with stock?
What are you hoping to achieve with either the AKA upgrades or the Vapor #2 "meal deal"?

Stock it shoots a hella lot better then i ever thought it would but it says on the vapor page 190 to have their package 2 done and i dont need to do anything that i know of, but out of either im just wanting to make the gun as smooth as possible,to the point where it wont chop just pinch,and just run as well as I can get it to.Lemme know whats best ,Thanks!

The AKA upgrades will make it more efficient if you set the regs properly. I don't know if the AKA upgrades on their own will allow you to achieve what you want.
If chopping is your biggest concern, then maybe get ICD's retrofitted PDS system for the BKO.
I don't know if "vaporizing" the BKO will prevent chops if a ball doesn't feed properly.

Jake,
One of the first things you will need to consider is which grip frame you currently have. If you have the 2k3 frame then the vapor trigger will not work on it and thus would not be a part of the package needed unless he has recently made a trigger for the 2k3 style grip frame. If you have the older grip frame then the trigger is a very nice upgrade.
Both of the ways that you are wanting to go are nice options. Both valves are great. The mods however do make a difference and these will not come with the AKA setup. The AKA Mighty Max will greatly increase efficency while the rock on the vapor package will increase consistancy. At this point I will have to say that I would go with the vapor package though.
The real plus with the AKA package though is the sidewinder. If you are going to be investing in upgrading you BKO then a new reg is a priority.
My advice, and take it as you like it, would be to go with the vapor mods, valve, and bolt, (trigger if you have the older style grip frame) but if you have the money to do so also get a reg. A sidewinder, gladiator, or torpedo are all good options. I hope this was helpful.

yall have been an excellent help but is there anyway that I could get the mighty max and then have it customly tapped to fit a LPR on it to get both the efficiency and consistancy or is their another way to do this?I actually still need to order my BKO but ive shot my buddys and wanna know how to upgrade it correctly.Thanks Again

You can also buy the vapor valve and volumizer for less than buying just the tornado valve.
