guys i was just wondering what the efficiency is like on an 04 shocker as i am thinking of buying one and i would like to know what size air system i would need to get.
i play back if that helps. :thumbsup:

Efficiency isnt the Shocker's strongest point, but having said that they arent as bad as everyone makes out.

Our captain, Raels, uses a 68 4500 and has put the turbo bolt in her marker and will shoot around 5-6 pods plus a hopper no worries (yes she plays back). I have a 91 4500 but play front so it is just overkill, i used a 68 4500 for Qld cup and i am looking at getting a smaller bottle again in the future.

If you are getting 4500 fills you shouldnt have a drama, if you arent getting quite that much a bolt is a fairly cheap upgrade that will give you peace of mind :thumbsup:

Hmmm that isnt good.

On a full 68/4500 you should be getting 1250 - 1400 with a turbo bolt and tricked up. Anything less than 1200 something needs tweaking.

I can use 9 pods and a hopper, and gas out.. Doing a Deadeye and being a hose beast the efficiency will drop at least.
