volumizer installation

[Maelstrom]

hey I just got my dirt volumizer, and I was wondering whether or not i should take out the springs and stuff thats already in there or should i leave them in. also what is the default lpr setting? (what is it set at stock)

IF you take out any of those parts, you will positively have a non functioning gun. The purpose of the spring and it's guide, are to allow the valve to close after the ram leaves it. Without these parts in there, you will have some problems, to say the least :)

WIth that said, you understand that you have to leave them in.
Do you have an angel toolkit?
"default" Lpr setting varies from gun to gun, but your LPR psi should be about 75.
If you do have a toolkit, screw the lpr gauge on the LPR side, then install the volumizer. Then shoot over a chrono at ~290 fps.
Check your psi and then get back to us.

I won't be able to chrono it till mid next week, i ordered a chronograph but it won't be here till then. I do not have an angel toolkit. do you recommend getting one?

Yes, highly recommend it. It allows you to do what people on here tell you, instead of going to some shop to do it.

I don't suggest shooting the marker unless you've chronoed it, it's possible to blow the solenoid or an o-ring.
If you don't want to wait to get a toolkit, then you're going to have to try your local store/field.

Yes.

couldn't i just turn the velocity way down then turn it up until it looks about right? if i leave the velocity where it is now do you think it will be ok?

That's what I was going to say, just screw your mini-reg in heavily so you're positive you're shooting under.
