Setting up my E-Pirhana after sittin in garage for a few months

~Proto~ · 01-10-2008, 06:34 PM

To start this thread off I have a Pirhana Ext
-E Force Frame
-T Board
-FBM Trigger
-Extreme Rage Twist Lock Feedneck
-Shocktech Spring Kit
-Shocker Max Flo or Empire Reg

Last time I put it away the spring tension, pressure, and everything was all messed up. I have the stock internals, so my first question
What is the lowest pressure I can run this gun with the heaviest ST spring in?
Also will the gun perform better with a low input pressure and heavy ST spring spring, or a gas threw grip running at around 700 psi. (Kick, efficiency, sound)

Any way the deal with the T-Board and eyes
Where can I get eyes drilled with eye covers? Should I get in contact with boss?

Im pretty sure I have more things to ask but I cannot think of them right now, but I will add more along the way. If anything doesnt make sense I will try and correct it.

use the medium spring. you can probably get it to run about 350ish. boss can set u up with eye covers. he made me some. good luck

~Proto~ · 01-10-2008, 07:04 PM

remember these are stock internals. I thought they ran at 700 psi?

steveschmucker2005 · 01-10-2008, 07:19 PM

right, but the reg changes all that. they all have the same internals. i believe the valve is the same too. my evo runs at 320ish with stock internals and a det reg, shocktech bolt

Hows that shocktech bolt?

steveschmucker2005 · 01-11-2008, 02:53 AM

i havent used it in a game yet, its been installed and dry fired. spring is coming though.

~Proto~ · 01-11-2008, 02:22 PM

now i cant get the damn board back in.

Ok cool so when I get it back in ill try that.

steveschmucker2005 · 01-11-2008, 07:46 PM

the stock board or the t board?

~Proto~ · 01-12-2008, 05:19 PM

t-board, the on/off button wont align with the board button.

steveschmucker2005 · 01-12-2008, 07:11 PM

take it out make sure nothing is int he way, slowly but firmly press everything down as far as you can get it. make sure the wires dont get pinched or end up by the microswitch. screw it down

~Proto~ · 01-14-2008, 07:44 PM

ive pretty much tried that. Cant get it in now.

Also is only the screw on the trigger supposed to activate the microswitch or is there a spring? between the trigger screw and microswitch

steveschmucker2005 · 01-14-2008, 09:36 PM

got to be firm and carful with the board. too me a while on mine. no spring on fbm trigger, screw trips switch. screw wont trip switch if board isnt in all the way

~Proto~ · 01-15-2008, 07:46 PM

Thank you very much.

~Proto~ · 01-25-2008, 02:13 PM

I still cant get this thing in. Would contacting PMI be a good idea?

Try reorganizing the wires, balling them up just right is key. Try stuffing them deep down into the fram b4 puttin gthe board on top. Also, if the board is too narrw for the buton on the frame to activate the buttons on the board, try using a wedge of some sort, i used a small piece of paper folded a bunch of times.

steveschmucker2005 · 01-25-2008, 02:52 PM

trial and error. reroute the wire to the noid.

markade · 01-25-2008, 10:04 PM

make sure the led's are close to each other, i had hard time with mine. i had to wiggle and play nwith um to get it to fit good. so far so good.

~Proto~ · 01-29-2008, 06:07 PM

The other day before I took the board out there was a spring bouncing around in there. Any idea what it was for?

steveschmucker2005 · 01-29-2008, 06:20 PM

the sear release spring.

~Proto~ · 02-02-2008, 04:51 PM

Do I need that? lol

steveschmucker2005 · 02-02-2008, 11:00 PM

not really. it makes taking out the hammer and bolt assembly a little dificult. you will have to loosen the trigger frame.
