            U Should be hitting more than 10psi on your S2 as well!

            Cant think of what it should be now, think its 1.2bar, which equates to around 18psi

              I think the factory setting was lower for the 3B. Wasn't it more like 0.8 Bar ?

                  Yep should see 0.8 bar max on a stock 3B engine or roughly 12psi in old language. You maybe have an air leak - totally normal for a 12yr old S2 if it hasn't been owned by someone on this forum who has been educated in the ways of keeping these animals healthy.
