I am curious about a few things on the A4 fly
:
1)What should the LPR with a Dye Throttle preset tank be?
(These are high pressure tanks unfortuantely, but its what I had.)
2)What should the Dwell be set at with this tank.
3)What should the TR be set to for tournament play?
In other words if it isn't set to lowest is this illegal?
4)About when should the reg be broke in (around 5000 shots or what)?
I seem to have some problems with consitancy when chronoing the gun.
Thanks Guys hopefully you all can help with this.

I dont need to get down below 300 I can do that already. The mod is not really needed on my angel because I havent spiked above 300 yet. I will just jump about 8 to 10 fps when chronoing. That was the consistancy issue. But can actually get way under 300. Thats why I asked how many shots until the reg was broken in and things of that nature. I looked for answers to my questions and didnt seem to find them on here. Anyway I wish one of the techs would look at this post and respond because I would like to know about these things.

1) The proper LPR pressure cannot be derived from your tank's output pressure.
2) Nor can the dwell.
3) The highest tournament-legal TR is specific to the gun, the trigger, the trigger setup, the skill of the player using the gun, and the referee who's testing it. Sorry, no single answer for you; you'll have to find the setting that works for you. TR 1's always safe, TR 22's always not. Go from there.
4) Which regulator? The tank reg? The LPR? The mini-reg?

You can start adjusting your LPR pressure and such after about 8000-10000 shots.
