Umm, Rob you said 2" was too big to be effective and 1.75 was what it should be I presented proper math about what it needs in an ideal scenario (and I even stated that outlets are not) and you still said it was all wrong. It seems like only you and "not vtt" are ever right, and everyone else is wrong. I'm sure you are far too busy "getting orders out" to legitimately respond, so it's cool, we get it, you don't like vtt.
Pretty sure we already had this convo a couple pages ago. To recap yes we do still feel that if we were doing tubular outlets- we would use 1.75" OD (1.63" ID) tubes and a sweet merger into a single 2.5"- but we would NOT kick the 2" OD (1.88" ID) tubes out of bed either if it were a requirement for the best merger, which is literally the focal point of the purchase.
NOTE: Using full 2" ID silicone IMO is just pushing it way too much, especially considering that stuff is like 2.4" OD- that is basically tree trunks for outlet sizing and is asking for huge install issues. Completely unnecessary, way overkill, and an overall very poor concept.
We'd also keep any transition adapters needed intact to keep port matching inline with the compressor housing and outlet as well. As of this moment the closest thing, IMO, to a great aluminum solution is the PSP- not that it is exactly how we'd do it but it is what we would buy as a consumer looking for an Aluminum solution today. The merger is absolute perfection- and as stated numerous times that is an extremely important part of the outlet.
And if VTT were to make the above unit- we'd certainly be saying to buy VTT. In fact we would likely send all of our customers their way as well as discontinue our silicone outlets as well (which are designed perfectly and have been excellent as a product, but are still silicone and susceptible to issues eventually).
Contrary to popular belief we do not care who makes the best pipe, we are simply looking for the best pipe to be made; and we are nice enough to give the recipe for it in the above passage.
