Regulators am I right.... WOW!
I have been searching for advanced info on regulators and have come up short, videos and reviews talk about the performance or the installation of them and I cant find good reviews comparing the popular regulators against each other.
I am looking for the detailed information and information to help me understand exactly how they work and if they work differently from each other, how the modifications that people make affect them, which ones might need mods to be good or better, and the pros and cons of the major brands compared to each other. There has to be a regulator Guru on this forum that has messed with most of the major brands and give his thoughts on which ones are best and why and pros and cons and mods.
When I hear or read things without an explanation like "I enlarged my plenum" "I deleted my plenum" and they dont give a how or why it sends me on a quest for knowledge.
I am also curious to the pros and cons of the installation differences between the regulators, some you need to drill a hole, some you have to file threads, some you leave out a o-ring, and some they say you dont have to do anything at all.
Some of the major brands I would like thoughts on are Huma, Lane, Altaros, and maybe even some factory regs compared to each other and any others. I see they can vary by brass or stainless and fat and thin, short and long. And I am sure they vary by quality, consistency and longevity also. I want to make a informed purchase so any help you can share is appreciated.
So take me to school on Regs.
