Not sure the next time Ill get to test that.
When I test blowoff valves, I test them against Tokyo Marui components. The only that I change when I do this test is the hammer spring and of course the blowoff valve.

My Marui gun reads (normally) around 290-305 FPS (ish) with .20g BB Bastards and propane. When the Guarder valve is installed, the FPS jumped to around 320-330 FPS (ish). I remember this test because I was surprised at how well that Guarder valve worked. I hate Guarder. lol.

Also, putting an enhanced blowoff valve won't get rid of your lightstriking issue. In fact, it will worsen it. High output blowoff valves are harder to crack open that the standard Marui valve...
