what should my reg output pressure be set on? i found a writeup on the low pressure kit and it said that they found the best pressure to be b/w 350-400 psi. is this correct? if not what should it be set on?

Anywhere  from 300psi to 400psi Depending on what accessories you have, ie. R/T, Cyclone, and realize that not all guns have the same internal Resistance ( for lack of a better phrase).

My sons LPK A5 with E-Grip is set at  315psig , my 98C with SR/T and Cyclone is set at 280psig (Delrin rear bolt) both shooting at 285fps .If I had a electric hopper and e-trigger I could lower my pressure to about 210psig.

"Best pressure" is not written in stone. It varies from marker to marker. And the phrase "best pressure" is a misnomer, you are looking for a pressure at which the marker still cycles correctly. Proceedure is to start at 400 to 500 psi and adjust downward. When you get to a point where the marker doesn't blow the bolt back far enough to engage the sear and stay cocked, increase pressure about 50 psi and try it. The minium pressure at which the marker functions is your "best pressure."
