MY tuning guide. Anyone can do it! for V2 and stock!

Ninja1058 · 03-02-2008, 02:11 PM

so generally a lower PSi means higher dwell? can you have them both low and turn the back cap out? i have a tru flo delrin bolt V2 and the stock spring. i'm trying to get it to be the most gentle on paint. what kind of setting would u say is good?

i lost my lurker somewhere in my room. its nearly empty too. ppl with shockers at the field keep using it.

you know every shocker taht has used it has had a 45-60 fps gain?

Nice guide, Max. Good principles employed. I will second the backpressure being VERY important...that is central to the concept of my poppet.

MaxOC · 03-02-2008, 09:27 PM

yay, praise from lurker, now my life is complete

im runnnin outta lurker though. it sucks. i got like a quarter tub left lol. id guess i got another 2 months.

by the way, you really should go around in the shocker forum a lil more. EVERY shocker that ive let lube using lurker has had a 45-65 fps gain from various lubes. 33, 55, mookies, other stuff too. although they keep using too much and gettin some fsdo. *******es lol.

ive never actually taken time to do a full out tune lol. i need to just play with my gun some. learn a lil more how the dwell and backcap effect things. i need a good kit first though. my paint is way small due to desert. and im using a 91 barrel lol.

How much better on air is it when set to the top specs?

MaxOC · 03-06-2008, 11:40 PM

with v2 and kit, a case a 68 45. stock, maybe 1700

how about top spec vs bottom spec.

using V2 bolt and yellow spring?

Thanks for the fast reply.

MaxOC · 03-06-2008, 11:43 PM

no idea. nobody uses the yellow spring. its useless.

Schtuff · 03-07-2008, 12:50 PM

it does give you faster cycle speeds

MaxOC · 03-07-2008, 02:36 PM

so? you shouldnt be going past 15 anyway. its worth it to use the blue. and if somebodies using yellow or red, i cant help them in any way shape or form.

Or if their using the Tadao board

Cazort · 03-07-2008, 02:58 PM

i don't know of any tourneys that allow anything above 15bps so the blue spring is the best. also if you NEED to shoot above 15bps your most likely compensating for a lack of skill unless ur in the back yard trying to get the most bps award (not trying to be mean or anything)

shadow_772 · 03-07-2008, 03:06 PM

Awesome post man, thanks for the guide. I will tune mine this weekend when I get air.

i sometimes hit 16 17 semi(ive got it tuned so it bounces like a pros ego) and i have no problem chopping up at taht rate. i think its the lurker. in fact thats when it chops the least paint lol.(we has **** paint.)

not sure i understood all of that. your guns capped at 15 but you have it to where it bounces to 16, or 17 like a Pro's ego?
so you chop with the blue spring and v2 bolt at 16-17 bps?

MaxOC · 03-07-2008, 06:39 PM

not capped semi. there is no such thing as capped semi.

no, i dont chop at high rof.

set his psi to 130, dwell to 15 blinks(2.5 ms) and backcap till you hit 300 fps.

he doesnt have a chrono, so he wouldnt know if it was 300. But ill tell him to set those settings now.

Isn't 15 blinks 3.75 ms on the stock board?
