Default A few progress pics of my 2 stage set up

I havent been able to get much done lately with all the rain around here but I was able to do this when it stoped for a bout an hour, Its a brand x wet kit with a dynotune masterblaster purge and hsw dry kit. The wet kit isnt plumbed yet becuase I'm waiting on my nx maf plate to come in.

Looks like an SLP. Why are you going with 2 stages again?

With all that injector, why not spray one of them dry?

+1 for DIY mentality, but it looks like crap. for such a small shot overall, i would have gone with a single shot on a progessive.... would be easier to tune, only have 1 bottle, less points of failure, etc etc.

I don’t think cleaning it up is going to help w/ solenoid(s) location and the rats nest of steel braided line.

Seriously though, if you said you’re doing 2 stages b/c of traction issues, but your overall shot is 175 (which is not a big shot at all) then why not get a progressive controller? All said and done would probably be cheaper and well, just make more sense.

One advantage to mutli-stage systems is that progressive controllers are hard on solenoids.

if you've got an crappy solenoid or maybe an older one. i have yet to see a newer style solenoid fail due to being pulsed too much from a progessive....

The bottom line is, the more you use a mechanical part, the faster it will wear out. The more you open and close a solenoid the faster it will wear out. I am not saying the progressive will kill the noid quickly but it will wear out faster than a solenoid that has been open and closed 1/2 as much.
