if its a stock ion its probably very gas hungry .if you install a qev (and an aftermarket bolt) you can lower the dwell dramatically(sp) and this will help your efficency..however i personally would never run SP marker off an 0.8 but im sure its possible eith the right tweaks

i always found that stock ions where quite efficent, i used stock ion saturday and was using loads of paint and not needing ti fill, have you cleaned and lubed the bolt and got any leaks?

all SP markers are gas hogs even with a stinger bolt the shockers no-where near as efficent as an ego ..not that im saying you were wrong its purely in my experience :)
