Sorry I don't have an answer but a question...speaking of air efficiency, do mini invert players lower the output of the hpa bottle since the gun only shoots @200 psi? or does it make a difference if the output is 800 or 600 psi? I'm a newb i'm trying to find out for when I get mine.

Tippy... Yes there is a way to make your Mini way more air efficient. Buy an aftermarket bolt and spring. One without the other won't do much, but together it really does work. There's a lot of people who will argue that they don't work, but I find those are the people who expect it to be a plug and play sort of thing. You have to be willing to tinker with the dwell settings and reg. pressure to work up to it's potential. My Mini runs on 100psi as opposed to the 200psi that it takes with the stock internals. My dwell is significantly lower, I'll update this post later with exact settings and you can use my settings to help you when and if you decide to do this upgrade.

Skuzi... Just leave your air tank alone. The reg. on the Mini will take care of the pressure.

If your running at 100psi instead of 200psi are you doubling your efficiency?

And thanks! Ill look into those parts.

Actually I was reffering to this one... New Designz NDZ Invert Mini Version3 Bolt & Spring Kit w/ case :: Paintball Gun Upgrades :: e-Paintball .
It's got the springs (I use the medium one) and the delrin bolt in one package.

Not sure right now. To be honest, my Mini doesn't get used very often. I'm sponsored by Tippmann, so I usually am running my Phenom. I bought my Mini right before we got our sponsorship and decided to make it a project gun anyway. Right now it has: Virtue Redefined board, Virtue eyes (Blue), NDZ Tru-Flo bolt and spring (medium), NDZ Spinner detents, CP sling trigger, and a Bob Long reg. gauge. I'm actually at work right now, but sometime in the next couple of days, I'll fill up my air tank and let you know what all my settings are and how many shots per tank. I'm guessing over 1000 on my 68 / 3000. So on a 4500 it should be well over that!
