RE: Call this good, or keep going?
Okay Sleeprider,

About a month in. Slowly raised my pressure to a pressure of 14, with EPR of 3.

Leaks have gone up. Discomfort has gone up.

I still have a 99.5 flow limit of .26.
I still have an inspiration time .6 seconds longer than my exp time.

What gives? I don't seem to be making progress ;(

Lowered my pressure down from 14 to a fixed 8 (no EPR), and it seems like I did fine?

So I am back to my orig theory.. a flat 8 pressure seems to be working well for me?
