[QUOTE="madman1234509, post: 1144156, member: 3910"] It was just a reference to a ball and spring style regulator. What I use looks just like what you pictured, it is a variable orifice regulator, and it does not work. Can you send me a link to what you use? If it bleeds off air to maintain a set downstream pressure, then it should work. Otherwise I don't see how you get any adjustability out of it except limiting the time it takes to equalize pressure on both sides, which would be minimal. You'll still end up receiving whatever boost you are making to the top of the gate. Also, its why I don't see how anyone kits have any "adjustability" except by interchanging or adding/subtracting springs. The gate is going to stay shut unless back pressure overcomes the boost pressure and spring rate that is being applied. Which basically will keep you at 1:1 or close to it if you think about it. Ultimately that's a good thing, but that's not what I'm trying to accomplish. I want to open my gates at a certain pressure once the small one is lit, to get the big one going. Also, to keep the small turbo making a little more then 1/2 the boost pressure. If they do that I'm not concerned with back pressure, because it'll never make ridiculous back pressure numbers due to the size of the big turbine housing and AR On edit, I see you mentioned Hallman, which I see a lot of people mention over on yellow bullet. From what I've seen and what their site says they don't have an air bleed style controller. [/QUOTE]
