    Classic or ReTro valve with E-lcd?

    Here's the deal. I have one old mag with classic valve and 8-hole conversion and another with Retro valve plus i have a Boo Yaah E-lcd grip. Now, i will put the E-lcd, lvl 10 and Warp on one of these so my question is this:
    Which valve should i use with the E-lcd?
    Sure, the Retro is better, but is it a waste since the retro trigger function will be lost? Whould it be better to put it on the other Mag that will still be mech?
    What du you think?

    Well if you plan on shooting fast a lot then you should use the RT valve. If not then just use the classic valve.

      It will work best with the retro valve and the on/off assy that came with the Elcd grip. I would normally say use the ule trigger with that, but you would need to get the valve drilled to accept it. Retro valves are stepped at the bottom of the on/off hole and need to be flat to accept the ult assy.

        I just heard that you SHOULD NOT use the E-lcd with a retro valve since you can damage the solenoid or something. Is this true? Anyone who have used the above setup without any problems?

          That makes no sense. The retro valve is the exact same internally as the x-valve (with the exception of 2 orings where the on/off goes). The x-valve is used on the devilmag which shoots a lot faster than a mako or booyah.

            I don't think you can outshoot a classic valve using a BooYah frame. The classic will give you almost 16pbs if the trigger is pulled properly. The great thing about an electronic frame is that it is always pulled properly. Use the classic valve on the eframe and keep the retro valve in the other gun. That way you will have two good performers.
            Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

                Yes , the retro valve will outperform the classic.
