Impulse Question

[Jamie]

so your vff isnt doing anything then since u have an lpr fitted,

Im just wondering why people fit both unless you had the vff then upgraded to an lpr

just curious why you would have both fitted? im not having a go its just nice to get some insight into how other people have there impys set up.

 

[evil sharks matt]

correct me if im wrong but dont vffs and lprs do different jobs?

 

[evil sharks matt]

i thought the vff splits the the air flow to the chamber and solys and the lpr just reduces the operating pressure of the gun reducing recoil etc

 

[Collier]

The LPR also splits the air, hence the redundancy of the vff's.

They look nice though

Paul is correct. I have both, but since installing the LPR the VFF has become redundant but looks damn nice.

 

[evil sharks matt]

oh right. thanks guys i didnt know that. How have you got your lpr set up? do u have it coming out of the vff?

 

[MarkB]

My LPR goes into the Eclipse modified front cap, but you can put it into the VFF, some people recommend it, but since the AA's and Ecstacy have them on the front cap I don't think it makes too much difference.
Whichever way still makes the VFF redundant since the optimiser/nipple type thing (not sure what they call it, looks like a solenoid optimiser) which goes into the solenoid chamber blanks off the hole in the solenoid chamber that the VFF uses to split the air and feed the solenoid. So the VFF can only feed the main air chamber which fires the ball. To feed the solenoid the air has to come through the reg.

Hope that explains things a bit, don't think I did a good job but then again I am ill

If u are running an lpr and have a vff fitted i would recomend putting the little grub screw back in which u took out to fit the vff, because if one of the seals on the lpr nipple goes and u havent replaced the grub screw or re-sealed the hole air will get in to the noid by-passing the lpr

Well Donny from sp fitted the lpr so im sure hes done it all good
