hold on its more simple than that. that metal pice that goes inside your piston (what holds your stock spring on place) and what the stock piston head screws too acts as a spacer or shim, which inturn adds to the overall fps. if you didnt take that out thats your problem.

if you did, then the fact you have a tb, 140, good hopup adjustment all add to the overall fps. you could have recieved a mismarked spring.

380 on "stock" mechbox is just fine. if you still had the nylon bushings youd still be ok. as it stands now your gun will run fine for atleast 1-2 seasons (depending on use and abuse). all i reccomend to members is to put metal bushings a 140% (nothing more) and and upgraded piston on a 9.6v and thats all. only reason i reccomend the piston is a stock piston will wear down withing a year and youll end up opening the mechbox again to replace that. take care of it the first time. anything over 140% or a higher voltage warrants gears, and definatly a piston. but as it stands now your gun is fine.
