I completely get what you are saying, I am just repeating what I have learned from other users in the south where the system has a much larger user base that has gone though a lot of the math and experimentation to find what works.

I think where I am getting the idea of running a higher DP then needed is because of the ORGA wide boars. (In fact, I'm sure that was the topic of discussion that I have been remembering) Since the point of the Orga is to create a cushion of air around the BB as it travels, a higher volume of air would definitely be needed since a chunk of it is passing the BB. If you were to tune it for the exact volume of the barrel, air would pass the BB and then there would be no pressure left to keep accelerating the BB before it leaves the barrel.

For a TBB none of that would be required.

When P* released the system, I think they intended people to always run around 120 PSI, so they brought out the different nozzles to regulate FPS at the PSI. It was the user base that said no, we want to run different PSIs and discovered that the less restriction to airflow there is, the more efficient the system is. It was the user base, not P*, that came up with the idea for higher flow poppet valves to further make the system more efficient. There are even Red + nozzles out there.

They probably used 0.2g BBs because that is what everyone uses as a benchmark for chroney.

One thing I am not 100% on is the heavier BBs picking up energy like GBBRs do.
FROM MY UNDERSTANDING, I could be wrong - Propane and C02 expand much more rapidly compared to HPA once release into the barrel.
I am sure heavier BBs still pick up more energy, but I don't think it is even close to the same scale as propane/C02
^^Another thing to play with :P

One thing you need to remember about P* when they first started - they were never an airsoft company, they made car parts! lol
One of the employees was probably an airsofter who started to make some parts for bolt actions years ago, then managed to win over their bosses with a pitch for the FE :P

I have a red nozzle that I usually use, I just threw in the blue for that demonstration because I knew the PSI differences were going to be greater to better illustrate the point being made.
I want to try the higher flow poppet valves as well, but I would like to see how low of a PSI I can achieve first with the TBB 509mm setup. If its about the low to mid 40s then I wont bother with the high flow poppets, because I dont think the P* will run very well below 40 PSI lol.
