Hello :)
Hi guys I’m new to the forum, been reading a lot of useful info on here so thought I’d say hi.
I bought a stealth 2000 .22 (non fac) about 2 weeks ago, really love it.
After a bit of research I noticed a lot of people modding with leupy custom mods so decided to give mine the treatment, I purchased leupy hybrid hammer,mainspring,spacer and spring centraliser.
After moving old spring, hammer and pretension packer, I fitted new spacer, centraliser,spring and hammer only to find power had dropped to around 6ftlb, was really confused by this as I was warned power may increase with new components!!
Tophat is standard brass face valve type, any help on how I can get the best out of my stealth be much appreciated, thanks

Exactly mate just wanted a better performing hammer, as you say rifle needs to be sub 12ftlb, will try bigger preload and am waiting on blodnob getting back to me
The standard leupy parts are designed for constancy not power. He is based in the UK where there are very tight gun laws. So much of his airgun work is for sub 12ft rifles. Though saying that you should not be getting so little power. There is a possibility you may have not put enough preload spacers in. If your after more power Leupy does do heaver hammer and unrestricted valve stems for FAC rifles. Blodnob also does customs valves that out perform stock AF valves. I think he still has a few left for sale.
Would top hat adjustment be enough to almost double power? No power wheel as it’s uk model
try adjusting the top hat and/or PW?

The Etac-Reg may be worth a look. I have used them a lot in the past and would highly recommend them. The regulator makes for very consistent shots. The adapter also drops the tank slightly allowing you to keep your scope mounted nice and low. The lower the scope you can mount the less radical your drop compensation will have to be. A great help for low power rifles.
