    ReTro Valve w/ ANS Gen-X 2 reg

    So I finally broke down & upgraded to a ReTro valve. The instructions say to adjust the input pressure to 700 psi & then tweak from there. I've got a constant output tank, but I had a Gen-X reg on another marker. I slapped the Gen-X on my Mag & brought it up to a little past 600 psi & the stupid reg started venting out the bottom.

    Regardless, even at 600 psi the ReTro is truly a thing of beauty. I am *amazed* at the response of this thing!

    But I can't help thinking: if the stupid reg would go above 600 psi, would the ReTro be even *better*?

    So now I finally come to my question: does anyone know of any way to make a Gen-X reg go above 600 psi? I'm not having any recharge problems w/the Gen-X at high rates of fire & I'd rather not dump bucks into an adjustable tank if I can fix the Gen-X for cheaper. Any advice would be appreciated...

    sounds like you have a low pressure spring in your reg, try looking for a high one. or maybe im just confusing the gen x w/ the vigilante

      You dont need to use the other reg... Just run it straight off of the preset.... I dont know why AGD recommmends a 700psi input... A lot of guys run theirs up around 1000-1200. I run mine off of a preset. It wont hurt anything. The higher the input pressure, the more reactive the trigger is.
