Impulse Upgrades

[Team Demonic]

I've got aq stock vision impulse and im looking at upgrading it.

I was thinking of getting a delrin bolt, voodoo tape worm and i was womdering any other recommendations on what i can do.

cheers

when getting the delrin bolt, you may also want to get some new internals, like a new valve, hammer and ram which can make it much more efficient etc, tape worm is good for high rates of fire so it doesnt get starved of gas, also a larger bored low pressure chamber can help to, a new trigger to, if you can get one (very unlikely) get an i frame, these things rock, if not, then go for the eclipse magno blade trigger

Here are my reccomendations, in order of which should be bought first:

Trigger (either magno blade or I-frame, but i-frames cost too much!)

Delrin Bolt (either eclipse or vodoo, reccomend the eclipse)

Tapeworm

Valve (reccomend the eclipse DART valve)

LPC (reccomend the vodoo or eclipse)

Hammer (stainless steel or titanium, again reccomend the eclipse)

Ram (reccomend the new designz slick shot ram)

you can get these from:

www.planeteclipse.com
and

in fact, if were recommending things, i recomment the delrin bolt to be a new designz equalizer, a new designz valve, new designz ram.

ND are THE best aftermarket products for impys

If you currently have a stock metal bolt, then when you upgrade to the delrin version it's generally a good idea to get a heavier hammer to balance it out. Or get a more efficient valve like the Evil or ND.

Either way, it'll involve fiddling with dwell again.

ok cool thnaks guys.

one thing that one of you mentioned was if i had a metal bolt to balance it out with a metal hammer.

mow i've stripped her down and the bolt does'nt seem heavy enough to be metal.

Tap it on a metal surface... does it sound like metal or like plastic? Aluminium is light, but it's still metal...

And another recommendation for everything New Designz. Like QP said, with a delrin bolt, you need a heavier hammer to compensate for the lightness of the bolt. You can't go wrong with ND Slik shot ram, ND R.I.P valve, Rat hole hammer (not that heavy but recommended with the ND internals). As for delrin bolts, I would say any of the different sized ND bolts or the Eclipse Dart.

BTW, the ND internals are supposed to do wonders for your impy in terms of efficiency and consistency. Thats why I am ordering the valve in the next week to complete the set!

One last thing, if you haven't already, go onto http://www.impulseownersgroup.com . You can find out loads of information about Impies and aftermarket parts on there.
