u screw right into the asa, and run a line from the bottem to the botem line. Itll looke soimilar to the mini ex chamber, but a little loer, and a little wider, . U can se it at paintballgear.comn, under regs inder aoir sytems

but the stock Kingman hose won't fit on the Pure Energy because it has different thread. You can get an adapter for it..i forgot what it was called..

u dont have to take the shutter reg of, i did because i wanted a bigger drop forward. But, if u want to keep the reg, ur going to need to add special adaptors to connect the lines because the spyder reg takes metirc, but the new reg will take standard threads

it's worth eVERY cent. I am glad i got my reg. It's a WGP, but you know what i'm talking about. teh Mini X chamber really doesn't do much except act as a forgrip...and the Kingman reg isn't all that great..

probabl is the crappest paint i vcan buy, besides zap and be. Buy big ball, they work the best with my boomiastick

i think that Marbs/Allstar(only inf your'e runnin lp) are the best you can get. But hey, if big ball works good on your barrel, get that and save money. Also, Hellfire are nice too.

a high flow bolt, a reg, a turbo valve, and a low pressure chamber. The low pressure chamber on your gun is fine, you really dont' need another one unless you're going sub 250 psi. For the bolt, the best is the AKA lightning bolt, but I have the Shocktech Delrin bolt, and it will do just as well. As for the valve, the best is once again the one from AKA. BUT, you really don't need a AKA valve. ANY turbo valve will do, although the stock won't. I have a Venom Turbo valve, and i'm running alittle under 300 psi. As for the reg, the Pure Energy is a great reg for low pressure. A barrel without a lot of porting is recommended, such as the JJ Ceramic or the Lapco barrels, to maximise efficiency. Also, the barrel is preferred to be small bore.

also, polished internals are recommended so that little work is needed to move the internals. Less work=less pressure nesssecary to move the internals.

what is the advantage of goin LP over just gettin a PMI reg and fixin up my shutter

low pressure will give you more shots per tank of CO2. Also, it quiets your gun down dramaticaly. Accuracy is increased a little also.

Having low pressure also allows you to use brittle shell paint. This is good b/c then it will always break on someone and it won't break in your gun.

and don't forget the spring kit..you'll need a lighter valve spring...and striker spring....

oh yaeh i forgot about springs. Did i alrady mention polished internals?

The best spring set is the Socktech Spring Set-this is meant for low pressure.

The hoses wont fit ur stock reg to ur new one, but i have an idea. Buy a regular standard 90 degree macro line hose for the pmi reg, and use jsut one of the regular miacor line hose things for ur stock reg. Id recoment taking the entire reg off though,a nd buying a 20 dollar drop forward and reg, and then just buy a macro line kit
