My stepsons Matrix is a Freeflow too. It is a damn good paintslinger.

Yeah..I'm sure Dave has got him working in his secret test kitchen (the nice thing about living not far from Dye is that a lot of people have loose lips regarding new product..heheheehe)

Dammit Dan!!! Answer me!!! Bunny is too cool to say what's up to No sKiLLz, now, everyone take note.

I was asking u since u didn't get Todd Martinezeszs Matrix, if you went with the NYX instead.

Load, unfortunately the Egi eye is only available in the NYX, but if he went over to DYE, I think it's a safe bet it will come in their upgraded version of the Matrix (Mini Matrix) due around Christmas (so expect it in summer of 2005). That was all speculation, so if anyone knows better, please correct me. It's clear Dave (DeHaan/Youngblood)likes to work with the best, but I still don't approve of him bowing to the Smart Parts patent (please, PLEASE don't turn this thread into another SP discussion) so I'm not sure how excited I will be when it comes time to get a new Trix.

I am not too cool...I don't like to post up anything if I don't have definitive answers to give..

[yeahthatsme]

last i heard dye's milled matrix is coming out at WC...maybe the milled dye and the mini-dye are different?

[DiRTyBuNNy]

yes...there are people out there that know what is going on...but why blow your connections all to heck just to tell a bunch of people you don't know what is going on?

So u don't know yet? Aw, ur killing me. I still owe u for the paint dispenser thingy.

The DYE Matrix is already available, as they stated just small changes with milling and the regs and the rest would be exactly the same as the Gen-E LCD, only with eyes, however, the mini is due around Christmas, so figure it should be available in the summer of 2005.

[DiRTyBuNNy]

yes...it should be out around the same time as those Dye Pods from last years catalog...

What are some websites to matrix guns? I know of thematrixcenter.com and thats it.

So is the evolve bolt kit the way to go? From its description it looks like all the aftermarket bolt items, (leethal, etc) in one neat package

[DiRTyBuNNy]

well..you can always go to www.matrixowner.com but it will be culture shock if you're used to AO...the mods are quite the opposite of our mods here..

[No sKiLLz]

The Evolve bolt kit so far is the only Matrix bolt avalable as a Delrin, but if Wang is right, it might be a while before we see it again, but the design is similar to the Free Flow bolt, although it boasts better efficiency and consitancy. After reading all the bolt tests and filtering out the BS it comes down to the list I posted.

The Leethal Mod is simply a drilled out back plug. If you have a drill press you can make your own, but the C4 mod supposedly smooths out the airflow around the back plug. Both do the same thing in different ways, however the C4 angles the airflow and also has less ridged surface area to distort air flow with less back pressure, so in theory it should be better. Hard to explain. If you see them you would know what I'm talking about.

That last link is to compulsive paintball, who says they have a few DYE trixes in stock.

And Dan, if I had a nickel for every time they told me the pods would be out next month...Let's just make our own.

[DiRTyBuNNy]

Those pods are never coming out...you didn't know that?

and as for the Leethal mods..I just got an email from Leethal and he said he's still got a couple of the mods still laying around he's going to sell to finally get rid of..hehehehehe..

[Kaiser Bob]

it looks like they milled into the plug on the leethal one to increase volume a tad bit more, the c4 mod dosent seem to have that, but the c4 does look like it would probably handle airflow better, not that i can observe the air flowing to really know.

[DiRTyBuNNy]

Yeah...a lot of people are wondering why they didn't mill out the rim of the backplug like the Leethal..but oh well...I'm not an engineer so I can't really say why...

I have the basic TMC LCD. What should I look for a a few performance upgrades. The eye is a definate when I get the SFL back from anno but until them I have a few bucks to spend. Any of these dinky upgrades actually do anything?
