High Flow Valve

kinkstr

Anyone on here happen to know how much of an increase in power i would get using a high flow valve in a kjw p226, its firing at 260 right now and i was going to try out one of these or something similar -

I've linked to a mod somewhere else here (troubleshooting section, I think) to increase the efficiency of your existing set-up by improving the seals on the mag. I can't be sure, but it seems to help (by preventing gas escaping between the mag and the mechanism itself). If you've chronoed at 260 fps with a .2g bb in the last few days, then remember that in warm weather you'll be chronoing higher; it's generally accepted that by warming your fully gassed-up mags up you'll see a power increase...

Thanks, presume this is what you meant?

Some good info in there.

In warm weather it fires at 280 max.

That's the one I linked to alright! It's worth a try before you spend the money; seemed to do the trick on my KJW P226. I didn't do all of that, just regreased and modded the mag seal.
