Hello.... and what would be the reason??
Just install a pressure assist..
Flushometers need high volume... 1" pipe needed .???? Not recommended... for residential

Your incoming water line might be unable to support the flushometer with a straight pipe connection.
By the time you install a means (such as an upstream pressurized tank similar to that in a well water supply system) of delivering the shot of water (pressure, volume still limited to 1.3 gallons, time in seconds) the flushometer needs for a flush, you might as well have installed a common tank type toilet.
