Pretty sure you can buy a new springpack that you just install by removing the top half of the reg and pulling the old springstack out... do a Google search for "Pure Energy HPA low pressure springs" or something.

The idea is that you take some of the Belleville springs out of it. How many -- well you let us know. :P

That could work, too, I suppose. Not sure how comfortable I would be with that, haha. Before you do either of these things though, make sure you have a gauged ASA to measure the output with. Just get an old ASA, put a 1000PSI or higher gauge on it (and plug any other ports it may have), and then put it on the tank...

Nope - it ain't the smartest idea and I would imagine the reg would become inconsistant. It's the old Angel A4 trick. Making a high pressure tank work on an Angel. Remove some shims on the stock Angel reg.
