Holley boost control-co2 or compressor air?

There are various issues that could affect how much you apply to the top.....yet nothing to do with backpressure.

With normal manifold air, this low setting is dictated by spring pressure, with high pressure air you could just blow the gate open against the spring.

Ordered the 5lb tank and regulator. Hopefully have it mounted this weekend. Anyone have a guess on how long a 5lb will last on a streetcar 2000-2500 miles a year.

When boost control is active it will use air/gas, when it isnt, it wont.
Holley uses duty cycle %, so how would you get back pressure out of that or am I missing something?
Also, make sure that you leak test it to maximize the life of the co2.

and here I have been jamming the gate open with wire ties, loaded with flashpowder squips each set to detonate in sequence thereby releasing the gate spring more and more as speed increases (not really!)
