ok guys so im about to purchase a DM8 and i was looking at upgrades for it, and a few things have caught my eye, the Pipe Detents, the virtue laser eyes, the OLED board and the Billy Wing Bolt Kit

has anyone used any of these and can they recomend if they would be useful or a total waste of time?

Thanks

I can recomend tadao oled board, easy to use, easy to set up and informative display.
Seen some sold in the forsale section for £70.

DM9 eye pipe, great upgrade as removes magnetic detents.
Laser eyes, waste of time as standard eyes are bullet proof.
Upgrade board wether virtue, tadao, musashi, OLED etc all great idea.
Billy Wing bolt kit also very good but not cheap.
CP continuous flow plug also a good idea, replaces the on-off at the front of body.

Get some additional Ultralite barrel backs to size paint and jobs a good one.

Laters :)

on mine i have , the 09 eye pipe, the BW bolt, cp flow plug and a critical raze trigger.

Shoots really well

I find that the standard board is fine and the same with the eyes

hope this helps

talked to the guy and he said he has already got a CP plug on i so theres one less job :)

think il probably do the pipe and trigger for the time being,

what are the benefits to getting the BW bolt?

i'd keep it stock for a while and then upgrade later so u can really feel the difference, or else you'll never notice. but hey thats just me!

i just jumped from a Etek2 to a Ego8 and.. my god the ego is sick :D

they shoot great stock. the only thing you might want is a cp continuous flow plug, but thats just personal preference..
