LPK operating pressure?

I just picked up a 98 with a LPK on it.
I printed the Tippmann instructions but it does not provide a ballpark operating pressure for the system.

There is a gauge on the volumizer and I have it at around 375psi.
Is this about right?

I am looking for an approximation to bring me close to chrony without spending a ton of time and paint.

Thanks,

Re: LPK operating pressure?

400 psi is a good place to start...

Re: LPK operating pressure?

Make sure you back the front velocity screw all the way out so that it is flush with the inside of the power tube. Use the regulator to make your major adjustments.

If you want to totally remove the dependence on the FVA you can get the zero kick hammer and a Rear Velocity Adjuster. At that point you can also look into getting an aftermarket power tube without the FVA hole. If you don't have a cyclone and/or RT and don't plan on installing either or both you could get a power tube without FVA and RT port.
