New Minimag owner (Wahoo!!!) needs help

[minimag326]

I just bought a used minimag on ebay, and i just had a few questions.
Question #1: I was planning on getting a N2 system, do i need to spend the extra cash on an adjustable system or is a preset one OK?
Question #2: If i get a preset system do i need a second regulator? What if i get and adjustable system? (I like the AGD Flatline, i borrowed one and shot with it on my Model 98, very very nice)
Question #3: Do i need a special type of barrel if i get the minimag warp-feed body? (I've notices some barrels say "won't work with center-feed" so i was just wondering)
Question #4: Is the X-Valve worth $225 bucks?

I think that is all, at least for now. I'm new to AGD and their products, so any other information that you want to give me will probably be helpful.

#1 - Preset works just as well as adjustable, just make sure to try and get an input pressure between 700-900 on a preset tank.

#2 - You don't need a second regulator because all AGD valves have built-in regulators so using a second one makes it worse.

#3 - You don't need a different kind of barrel when using a warp body. You do, however, need a centerfeed barrel when using a centerfeed body.

#4 - An X-valve is worth the money if you want the reactivity(in your case it'd be cheaper to just pick up a used ReTro Valve) and are willing to spend that kind of money for a valve that weighs 3 oz less than a stainless steel ReTro or E-mag Valve.

Have fun with your new Minimag and Welcome to AO!
