is there any way to get the vs to work on less psi then gust polishing sear and inside of the gun.

You could try the newer bolt and striker from alamocitypb.com
Not sure how much less air it would use, but the new, lighter striker should help to lower the psi a little.

worry about efficiency. everything else is pretty good.

opteron-03, how can you make it more efficient
?

Adjusting the springs. Mainly the valve spring
Prem205 and I have been experimenting and have come to the conclusion that the Medium Spring from the 32* Degrees Kit has the best results.
Prem205 has gotten around 800shots from a 47/3000. If that doesn't impress you, I don't know what will.
I was able to get around the same amount with a stock setup.
It's worked for both of our guns, so I assume it'll work for all other VS Markers, but remember, Kingman's tolerances aren't the same for every gun.

how would u make it more efficient with stock springs?

Stock setup as in bottom-line regulator and foregrip. While using the medium valve spring. Compared to my friends Upgraded V/A, CP Regulator, ON/OFF and medium valve spring.
I was hoping you would understand without having to repeat myself... guess not.
A bolt w/orings, a barrel kit so you can match paint to bore size and a few other things come to mind that would make a difference when it comes to efficiency. The VS is already operating at a very respectable low pressure...springs, lightened strikers and such can bring that number down but as opteron stated efficiency is what really makes the difference.

Running on Co2 would possibly help get a lower pressure... If you had a stab.
Would need a higher dwell, but you would be able to go lower without sputtering issues.

Opte - medium valve huh...what is the stock like a 32 degrees hard?

The stock valve spring is light. Equivalent to the black spring in the 32* set.

whats your psi at then?

Should be around the same. More or less.
As I said earlier. Every spyder isn't the same so maybe the results will vary.
Prem205 was able to get 190psi @ 290fps. I was able to do 220psi @ 290fps

thax for the help i guna try getting a 32* kit and try it in mine.
edit:
mvs1 - to get a lower operating pressure because a barrel kit is expensive.

Awesome!
