The trigger frames are not compatable, but I'm fairly sure the rest of the parts are interchangable.....

I understand that the ion QEV isn't compatible with the Epiphany

The new QEV's are compatible AFAIK ( fitted them to a mates without issues )

actually if you get a SP QEV it is rated to handle the higher pressures, make sure its the right one though. The trigger frames are compatible as the bodies, breeches, threads, and eyes are the same. The boards are different as they have a higher rated solenoid, the fire chamber is modifed to fit the inserts, the triggers i think are ok if you use a basic ION trigger with no extra pins or magnets, so you will lose compatiblilty there, the EPI triggers cant fit in an ION. The reg has an extra spring in, so i think that sticking with the standard Epiphany reg is a good idea, though i higher output reg should be fine.

well, it depends what you change, if you put a ION frame on it you can use lots of different triggers, but if not then the stadard sort of ION ups, bolt, board, grips, feedneck, eyes, detents, QEV, body kit. Considering the point of the EPI is to get better flow the firebolt is not the best bolt IMO, the bolt has to travel a long way in bolt terms, and with the amount of ports on the firebolt at those pressure the bolt is likely to break, and they do, lots of firebolts have broken in the EPI, maybe thats why they got rid of it , but seriously, i would say get something like the tect T L7 bolt, they have less structual weak points and so will have higher tollerances when using high pressures. Smartparts put a new aluminium bolt in the EOS, so wait and see if they stick that on their site, i think that might be the best upgrade bolt for the Epiphany.

Edit : Deadlywind bolt doesnt work in Epiphany
