IMHO, JG boxes are crap. I have a complete drop in that I 'tried' using in my CA receiver. it seemed fine but the fitment was only slightly off and there was an airleak between the nozzle and hopup.

Now I realize that you're using the JG shell in a JG receiver but I believe the Modify parts are the problem even though they are good parts. good parts in a poor quality box doesn't make up for it.

did you notice if the JG nozzle is the same length as the modify one?
Yes both nozzles are the same lenght. I'll look into a new gearbox shell then.

2 very common problems.

1. did you install the spring correctly? compressed coils at the spring guide.
Yes. I have the S90 installed but the stock one is linear.

2. Did you accidently reverse the cylinder orientation (only relevant with a ported cylinder)
Nah, the hole is on the back side, towards the Spring Guide. It's ported for my barrel lenght (363)
Did you do the compression test?
Yep, with Nozzle, Tappet plate, Cylinder head, Cylinder, Piston set. The whole thing and when I was blocking the nozzle, I couldn't push the piston, once it was past the "window" in the cylinder
It's quite likely that your leak exists between the hopup and the gearbox. Try using your old hopup unit first before ripping your box apart again.
I can't use the old hopup since I modded the plastic receiver. And it's kinda of a one-way mod

I'll try Gunny's test tomorrow morning
