So i know from reading the manual that the input pressure from the tank to the minireg (first stage) should be 400 psi. I have a low pressure max-flo system which only lets me turn the pressure up to 300psi. right now im running the gun at only 200psi input from the tank and its shooting but not having the best results over the chrono. is this because of the tank input pressure? if not is there something else i should do?
thankyou.

Up your pressure from the tank, you are starving the gun or air. As soon as you increase your pressure, you will see the difference in performance. Set the input to 300 which is the max of your tank and see how it runs, if it still seems slugish and not performing as well as it should, you might have to change your springs to HP.

You are going to need a break in period where the initial HP will help seat your o-rings etc. After that you can drop the pressure a little to see what's best for the gun.

I think it depends how low you're talking about. If it's low enough that the gun is starving, I think it could.
