    Tank input pressure for a species timmy

    I want to buy a max flow tank for a species that I have coming in soon but I'm not sure which kind I need a low or high pressure tank and what pressure to run into the gun. Any help would be appreciated.

    Timmies like the low pressure.
    Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

      So the 240 psi a lp max flow kicks out will be enough? I asked a guy from paintballgear.com and he gave me an answer that contradicted himself, he said the lp tank but with an input pressure of 350? That didn't make sense to me so I just want to be sure.

        I'm not familiar with Max flow tanks. I know the tech for the intimidator said use a low pressure tank if possible. An input of 250 may be too low though. The input to the regulator on the Timmy should be at least 200 psi than the operating psi of the Timmy. Determine what you operating psi is and get a tank that is about 200 psi higher or don't use the reg on the Timmy and just use the max flow to reg to set the Timmy operating pressure.

          Intimidators are supposed to have approx 500 psi from the bottle into the Torpedo reg to run optimally. I used to use the Crossfire LP output tanks on mine, as it was set to 450 psi and I never had any kind of shootdown whatsoever.

          The LP Maxflow should be just fine.
