Re: Is this legal?

It seems that Q129 on the FRC Q&A would make this illegal IF (and only if) the pressure was to exceed 60 PSI.

However, it may be possible to find a gas spring (like they use to hold up the rear hatch on an SUV) to do that; it is not a pneumatic component.

Q129 Q. Does R82's 60 psi limit apply to all components downstream of the regulator at all times? Examples where 60 psi could be exceeded: 1) Compress air cylinder faster than the regulator's response; 2) Compress air cylinder being controlled by a 3-position valve that has closed off both pressure ports.
