I know i have been asking a lot of regulator questions such as which one is which and bla bla. Well here we go:

Tell me the regulator that works best w/ CO2 and Nitro. I should have asked that in the beginning.

PMI Energy REg is good. It works with both co2 and nitro. ITs not even that expensive its 42$. Im getting one for my piranha from what TL told me it works good. :)

i dissaggree the pure energy reg is a poor regulator. there is a lot of shoot down with it. i have a max flow reg on my shocker...but it freezes frequently with co2 in the winter, but works great with compressed air. for co2 get something a little higher than a pure energy reg if you plan on shooting fast. maybe a vigilanti or something like that.

Vigilantes are meant for N2, they absolutly SUCK on Co2, unless you have a Co2000 reg on your tank, as a first reg. If you use a vigi with Co2, i highly reccomend using it as a secondary reg. Palmers female stabilizer with the bottom line setup is awsome! Plus the Stablizer only costs about $75, and it's the BEST if your using Co2.

Skelo-U can get a PMI reg for $43 at http://www.Paintballgear.com
under gas and regs.

so which reg will be the best for both CO2 and nitro and not cost over 90 bucks.

WEll your kinda out of luck, some people just buy an anti-syphon kit for their C02 and use a n2 geared regulator. Also, if you Do decide to buy stabelizer, it will work pretty well on N2 also.

will a nitro reg work well w/ an antisiphon tube in my CO2 tank?

no do not get a N2 only reg, even with an Anti Siphon tube. The gas is still very cold, and it will still freeze up the O rings and cause you more trouble than you really need. the PMI Pure energy i used, i could not freeze it up no matter how hard i tried. It is a nice reg for the money, and it will work nicely with both Co2 and N2

A damn fool

The pmi reg works great, i used it with co2 in cold weather, and i didnt have ne problems with it. I dont know how it nitro, but i know it can be usedwihth it. Its a great, inexpensive reg that u can use for both setups

from what i hear the PMI is ok for Co2 but it's not the best. The best is supposed to be the Palmer Stabalizer/Regulator. it's a reg that was designed for Co2 useage

it is, but if yo'ure gonna go Co2, and hten N2, you want to get a well rounded reg, like the PMI Pure Energy.
