upgrade my imagine!
in order, list things i should upgrade... this is what YOU think.. a lot of the stuff i'll probably still do... i'll get pics ASAP, gotta get some new batteries for the camera.. but as of right now all it's got is a teardrop barrel. the body is black, barrel is silver, so i'm going to stick with the black/silver color scheme (i think it looks hot)... reccomend me some ups!!
only a couple rules...
1. no HPA.. i know i should get it, but this gun is only run on co2 and will probably stay that way
2. i dont think i'll have a problem in here, but please dont reccomend "get a better gun" i'm doing this for the hell of it, and i want to up this gun. if you dont like that, dont post...
3. i will take pics as soon as i get things that people reccomend... although if a t-board is on top of everyones list you'll have to give me a while...
post away!
EDIT:::::::::::: I have a 2k5 imagine LED ::::::::::::::::::::::::[/edit]

I'm not going to FL anymore, I'm pretty sure. Not 100% but, meh... I have a pretty full schedule, for paintball time. Every saturday I work and sunday usually is a team practice or a tournament. I'll be going to Ambush Alley for the "Play with the Pro's" BYOP that friday before the clinic, and I'm pretty sure I'll be there for the clinic as well.

...an imagine not running on hpa...either its really really really old, or u modded it ( and since when does spyder make a black imagine) but i'd sugget a hpa tank..even tho u say u wont want one heres some reasons in the future to get one
a 20z shots what 500 balls? hpa shoots that i think 550 not so sure doesn't affect performance from weather (Temp) and is cheaper to refill ( depends on where you live )
either that i'd get a 12v revvy hopper a T-board and a feedneck cause dropping ur expensive hopper on the ground is horrible..broke my viewloader 3rd game i had mine. but i had a spare from a friend so ya always buy a new feedneck for a gun to be safe of drops in my opinion
have fun dude!

*sigh* where to begin....okay, since when has kingman made black imagines? since the imagines came out. I have a 2k4 black imagine. he knows the reasons to get HPA, and your reasons were terrible.
a 20 oz shoots about 8-900 balls, which is double what your 48/3000psi tank will get. And usually places do all day air, or its cheap for a refill, either way, its not a big deal to him, so leave it alone.
a 12v revvy with a t-board??? thats a bad idea. the revvy doesnt have very good eyes, and an imagine doesnt have eyes period, so you will be chopping like crazy if you get a revvy with the t-board. Youll need an egg at the very least if you want a t-board, but i suggest haloB.
But still..thats not an upgrade of the gun, its an upgrade of hopper...

Sand polish bolt. Aftermarkets suck.
Slasher, stick trigger.
CCM or trinity feedneck.
t-boards suck. too much bounce. hard to tune.
New valve if you feel like spending money.
Reloader or halo.

T-boards suck??To much bounce?? WHAT!?!?
Have you owned one?
First of all, theres a setting called "DE"bounce, if you dont like bounce, you may turn it up. This board was the easiest board ever to tune, it took me no more than 30 mins to get it running perfect, and figure out all the modes.
Definatly get a t-board and break-beams if your going to up your spyder, or it will still be a slow spyder that you won't notice the difference in.

ya... sorry about that, never quite used a T-board was just saying what i heard from my field on imagines, that and i've never used a Co2 tank just compressed air and i don't really watch how many i shoot out before getting low, and i use a 12v revvy and it worked great on my imagine.
sorry for the false info

Friend had one. Prolly not set up right, but to the best of his ability. Always bounced. Probably b/c of the micro switch. Gun always worked like crap after t-board. So yes, imo t-boards=teh ghey. If you have something to say about this post, you can PM me b/c you wont change my opinion and its a waste of space, I will never buy or recommend one.
I don't want to argue. End Of Conversation.

okay.. so as or right now it looks like a valve, and a ccm feedneck... i've found a feedneck i like, anyone recommend a specific valve? otherwise i'll just get the one off action village...
EDIT: reason i dont want HPA, is because co2 lasts plenty long for me, and i have a 20 oz and a 12 oz... also, HPA is virtually impossible to find around here other than bfg, but i cant drive right now, so it doesnt much matter...
also, i'm sorry to some of the other people on here, but i'm gonna trust lovetocheats opinion on te t-board unless a few more people come in telling me something good, i know he knows what he's talking about, and such... i dont wanna spend my money on something that's gonna make a low end gun work worse.. lol....
by the way.. my current budget is 100$, a ccm no rise is about 30, that leaves me about 60 more for an up, and about 10 for shipping...
