I see. So how about now, what kind of range/power/stream boosts are you getting?
Just approximations are fine, I don't need hard statistics right now.

I honestly don't know, the pc has not been aligned correctly in tests, therefore I do not trust the results.  Basically, the gun leaks a ton of water because the pc is not staying fully in its proper connection.

Lots of balloon skins making the PC connector too thick to fit?
What about opening the PC itself to expose the rubber hart, then stretching the balloons over the outside of it?
This would probably give you the same boost in power, but without the issue of fitting the connectors back together.
Then again, I've never preformed a K-mod, so I only have this as a theory, but perhaps you could implement it.

The pc closes easily.  It does not stay put in the outer connection that keeps the inner connection in.  It has to go further in, but it like won't.  Nibordude also ran into this problem and has not fixed it.  This is my first experience with such a fitting issue, no other gun has ever done it to me.

Hmm, so do you believe the inside-out K-mod idea would have no effect on this?
Did Nibor run into this issue on the same model of gun? Or was it a different one?

I don't think the inside-out would solve the problem.  It might help, but the pc really has to be firmly connected all the way in.  It only holds pressure normally if a certain part of it is in far enough, it's weird and hard to explain.

So had Nibor run into this problem on another CPS 15/1700? Or was it a different one?

His is actually a stock 1500 that he opened for a rubber band repair.
