2400KT HiPac -- to pin or not to pin

I have a 2400KT with a HiPac that I'm currently running at CO
2
pressures and I'm getting decent results, but I'm wondering if it would be worth it to go ahead and pin the valve. I've shied away from doing it because I'm a bit worried that I won't get the holes even enough, but I might have someone else do it. I honestly don't need to run at pressures higher than 2000 psi, but right now I'm not getting above 1400 psi for safety's sake.
Who all would you recommend to make the modification, or is it even worth it? I'd like some opinions. Thanks!

Follow the instructions on the HiPac website to increase the size of the valve retaining screw from 6-40 to 8-32.... Since the tube isn't pressurized, doing that will give you the safety margin you need for the small area pressurized by the HiPac, and the loads of (hand) tightening it into the gun....
