I got it going. I had to use copius amounts of teflon tape and one single round O-Ring. The Flat ones that come with the Clippard Barbs suck pretty bad. They aren't tight enough to hug the fitting and sqeeze out above the threading and don't make a good seal.

Right now it seems to work really well. I also upgraded to the 1/8 tubing and the Response Trigger is much easier to catch the "Sweet" spot.

I was having problems with the RT. It was NOT shooting bursts of any kind. Maybe 3 round bursts but only occasionally. After I called Tippmann...they sent me a new RT fitting and an O-Ring for the connection in the handle. But still...I only seen 5 round bursts and they were NOT consistant.

So...I upgraded to the larger hoses and the Clippard QEV. Finally...now I can hold the RT "Sweet" spot and get a constent burst of about 10-15 rounds or so. Its still not as nice as all my other friends who have the 98 Custom Pro w/ the RT.

I guess its a work in progress right now. I'm just glad its working finally. Its definately an upgrade I would suggest. I am not sure if the Plamers would work better but...after using their Inline Stabilizer...I would have to say that its PROBABLY a nicer piece because of the quality that Palmers is known for.
