there are a couple of sweet 32* venturi bolts on ebay. all the orings seem to be the same distance apart as my 4.0's. but before i buy i need some advice, does anyone know for sure if they will fit?

Well as to my knowledge all the excellerators take spyder parts so im guessing if your buying a spyder venturi then it should work, but im not 100% sure. Ask someone who has tried it before.

i lined up the 4.0 bolt with the spyder tl bolt, and they are the same. the only difference, is after the o-rings the part that you pull back is longer on the syder bolt. so thats the only difference. so basically it should be fine, but itwill stick out the back of the gun more.

Don't waste your money on a venturi bolt, because it'll be worse than the stock bolt and more air restrictive. If you bought this too bad, but for anyone considering this upgrade forget about it. The only decent upgrade bolts you can get are the Tarantula Delrin, White Wolf Delrin, Spyder N-Bolt, or the Shocktech Delrin, but I've heard of really crappy quality shocktech ones.

Yeah, all venturi bolts are mostly the same. You would be much better off spending the $ on a new barrel or nitro for the excellerator you have. A new valve or trigger frame would also help. But, if you take the venturi off of the stock bolt and sand it to cup the ball, it will perform much better and allow much more airflow. And usedcondom, you forgot one bolt--the aka lightning. I would not reccomend getting a new bolt, and a new venturi bolt at that.

eh, venturi is said to be a gimmick, but at high pressures, I say go for it...for LP, just get a lightning bolt, for that matter, at HP just get a lightning bolt.
