increasing flow rate to pnuematic cylinder

Hi, you guys probably already know about this, but we're pretty disappointed at the velocity of the pnuematic cylinders. I've heard that this is partially due to the diameter of the tubes.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to increase the flow rate to the cylinders?
Are we allowed to use tubing with a larger ID?
I've also read that some teams are using T fittings at the inlet of their cylinders. Is this legal?

Much appreciated!
Windell
