I couldn't stand it, and just ordered a Huma for mine More ramen noodles for me
It looks like there will be a few of us to review the Huma soon then! When I do get it, I'm gonna see if I can make it work with no guts in the factory "reg", as opposed to simply bridging it as Huma states... I'm wondering what it will do with that reg set to 150bar too. Right now, the best I've been able to get out of it 790s with the 15gr sniper magnums, so a tick over 21fpe. That ain't bad for a .177 though. I'm thinking removing the guts of the factory "reg", and opening up the breathing holes in that factory contraption will effectively give it a bit more plenum to work with. Of course, that won't mean a thing if I can't get it to seal.Finding out if you can make things work is half the fun, even if you don't succeed

Sadly the flow path of the OEM regulator DOES NOT lend it self to opened up passages. The spigot of OEM reg that slides into the trigger frame vents into the plenum between the o-rings of the mount spigot, sadly this is also mid way in the short center bore where the OEM regs spool sealing o-ring rests. This prevent you from cross drilling at that location. Now if one were to perhaps make small plug w/ o-ring that is held down via the set point adjusting cap using just the very edge of the center hole, you could likely get away cross drilling Agreed there IS some plenum volume to be gained if you could get the space of the air tubes end cap and the attachment parts ( Ex reg body parts ) to be a more common space unobstructed by little passages.
It took 12 hours for the reg to leave Amsterdam and arrive in NY city. Should be here in VT in a couple days. If customs doesn't come into play...?

Any interest?
