I'm currently running a crossfire 88/4500, which outputs 800psi on my emag.

So after watching a video, by z-mag I believe; on how the e-mag will run better on an adjustable then a preset. Well I got tired of the little cuff and ball rolling out under rapid fire, and no it's not the lvl 10 hitting a ball cause it still happens when I dry fire. So I finally bought a dynaflow. :clap:

Now to the point, I currently have 32º macro fittings/line on my e-mag. I plan on running 900~1000 in my e-mag. From what I understand the macro line that Tunaman sells can handle that input pressure? If it can't someone please let me know. Also the fittings are they safe to use? While I do like the swivel ones are they able to handle that pressure? If not can someone point me to some that can.

Also I realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll llyyyy don't feel like going back to ss hoses. Yes they are better for this, but I don't feel like dealing with the large disconnects and sidechecks. They got on my nerves and that's why I took them off.

Yes , Parker macro from tunaman will hold up. Dont go above 1000psi though. Also before you do this , 32* fittings will not hold anything over around 900psi.
Get some good fittings and stay under 1000psi :)

i had the same deal as you, i bought 2 90 fittings from 32 degrees, and the foot of macro it came with, then i went to tuna, bought 2 fittings and 5 feet of his parker macro. ditched the macro right away, but i've run 1100-1200 psi consistantly through my gun, and all i switched was the macro. as far as i can tell, the 32 degrees and fittings tuna has are the same quality. both will work fine.

Dont forget squid either.
I bought some macro off him and it's held up through all the crap I put it through.

A buddy of mine bought a RedZ Pack off him a while back, and Squid even threw in 30 feet of Macro.

yes they probably could hold teh pressure, but should you run it at that pressure though?

I wouldnt. i owuld go back to the ss with a qd. Anyway its your life.

Because when squid origionally started to sell it, he proved that it could withstand extremly high pressures for us and provided the data. Nobody I know of has had a problem with it to date.

Do you recall what the pressure was it can withstand.

If i remember correcty, it has a working pressure of 900, so you shouldn't worry about the line, just worry about getting some high quality fittings. It's like a buck or less for a foot also, which is a great price.

Hmm that sounds good.

Where can I go to get the HQ fittings and what do they run? If they happen to cost more that is.

a quick disconnect works with macro... i've got it set up on mine...
you wouldnt think it though, ou just have to attach it before you attach the macro fitting, the whole q/d has a 1/4" in, 1/4" out fitting

The dynaflow drains the line when you use the on/off. Why use a quick disconnect?

I gotta agree with the guy above me.(i.e KRAN)
Further more, The Macro fitting works as a poorman's QD anyway.
