So I "modified" a shim that was the correct height to make up the difference and all it good!! I'll take some pics next time it has to come outThanks again Edited 02/02/14 07:46 AM by Peppy_t92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TURBO4L (or was it 4LTURBO) first told me about the return restriction yrs ago when he was running two 044's on the stock reg. He was seeing close to 5 bar. Anyway it would be good to document base pressure with: - 255 lph in-tank; - 255 lph in-tank & single 044 surge; - add more!!!I need to set my plug in gauge up and do a few different set-ups.
