Depends on the system. I know some solenoids are designed not to function over a certain pressure for safety reasons. Found that out on the dyno a few weeks ago. Pressure was at 1250 and the purge wouldnt even work, bottle cooled, pressure lowered to 1100 and everything was fine after that.

There NOS solenoids. I could purge the system,but time was off and mph. When i run a 60 shot 1/8 mph is 103 and 1/4 is 128. I was down to 96 in the 1/8 and 122 in the 1/4. When i got home and checked every thing out everything seem to be working then bottle was at 900 psi.

Thanks for all the help
