    HIGH flow nitro tanks?

    Does anyone know which nitro tanks flow the most? I hate having at least a 20bps mag and only being able to get 14 bps because of my cheap PMI tank.

      crossfire can can adjust your tank to a preset 1000 psi if you call and ask.

        Any of them will. They add shims to it. My 91 is set to approx 950 psi output.

          I really appreciate the input but I don't think pressure is going to help me very much, I may be wrong but in everything I've ever worked with increasing the pressure has nothing to do with the amount or air (or liquid) flowing through a system. With the amount of air that a marker uses at those hight rates of fire, the only thing increasing the pressure would do would be to prolong the shoot down maybe a couple of balls.

          I may be wrong but I spent over 10 years as an industrial maintenance tech and if your source can not flow enough to support your load, increasing line pressure will not solve the problem, only prolong the starvation problem.

            pressure does make a difference. Any pb tank that can supply 1000 psi will allow you to get well into the 20bps range.

              Did you add the shims or did someone put them in there for you. Also, where did you get the shims? I have a PMI HP tank @ 800-850 psi and I would like to increase my output to 1000 psi.

                No centerflag shimmed it for me when I bought the reg from them. But I have had to take the bonnet off to get replaced. Stupid me dropped the reg and it got damaged. I don't know where pmi placed theirs but the shims were placed with the main spring on my 420 reg.
