New taps prob. have smaller holes inside .......very common now as they are all from China :mad:
 
nige is right, fancy pants ceramic dish taps designed for high pressure direct system, installed on a low pressure gravity system will never work
 
have you used flexable pipes as well or connected to copper/ plastic. Its just the amount of times ive seen people use these flexable pipes and they are necked.

or
you may have low pressure taps

is your taps water flow like a garden tap or spray type ?

if it is spray type, it may have restrictor at water out point

just undo nut at water outlet points, remove restrictor and refit the nut

this might solve your problem
