Default Larger purge???

I am wanting to make the purge kit i have, plum larger! The solenoid has a 1/8npt to -3an fitting with 8' of braided hose and a T fitting on the end with two 10" long aluminum lines. It isnt very big or tall. Im thinking of running a single aluminum line without the braided hose or T fitting. Help me make it big....lol

I havnt used the nitrous in like 8-10 months and im about to start using it again

Is it open at the end, or are the ends slightly clamped closed?

I have the HSW purge on mine and it uses just a compression fitting and bendable aluminum line. My purge shoots really high! I would say it shoots up about a good 10ft or more above the hood.

to get the nice big cloud you also need the bottle to be at the right pressure, are you using something for this, nano/heater/etc? if your pressure is low the hit wont produce right and you wont get the pretty purge cloud, but i wont wory about trying to get a bigger purge cloud since you will basically just be wasting n2o, plus you will get to a point where a bigger diameter tube will make the purge blast shorter since it is a venturi effect if you remember your science when we push a gas/liquid through a smaller diameter choke point (venturi) the temp and the speed accelerates. Therefore the faster the exit speed the longer the cloud and the colder the temp the thicker the cloud. At least in theory... Dont wory about showing off leave it alone and let the RT/ET do the talking


and BTW yeah i use cheap compression fittings and copper tube from ACE hardware do run hard purge lines

Use a Nitrous Noid that will make it larger, I was messing around and swapped my Dynotune purge noid for a spare dynotune nitrous noid and that made a huge diff in the volume purged.

Maybe it's the 8ft of hose that it needs to travel through before exiting? Can you do away with that long hose? Below is what my purge setup looks like.
