Bad air flow. I have a Bellpro one and the ports are rather small for the size.

The second QEV you posted is probably way better. Go with that one.
It'll pilot your 1" piston valve, but a 1/2" ball valve may give slightly better results.

Better yet, if you're not set on a coax, you can use a larger version of that valve as a piston. I've had great results with this one: http://www.fastenal.com/web/products/de ... ku=0443031

It doesn't take much of a pilot valve, either. This little guy is plenty if your pilot volume isn't large: http://www.mcmaster.com/#6790t42/=4tocmx
