And my advice is not to do this - get the right thing to start with, unless you know what you're doing (and by that I mean certified). There's a reason that FRC rules do not permit any modification of pneumatic devices, apart from cutting tubing and making adjustments that were specifically designed to be adjusted by the user/consumer. You got it in one: .
