Could someone give a little clarification on the pitot tube and jet system. It sounds like you need to be tieing the carb vents to the charge tube side of the intercooler to have positive pressure. This is supposed to pump out the extra fuel when your on boost? I don't have turbo rx1 yet, but I have run Polaris 700 & 800 turbos. On the Polaris turbos we have been using external power jets like a dial a jet to add extra fuel. Do you think it is possible come up with a pitot system on a machine with out an intercooler? If so, how would you get the pressure differential?

Slacker... its about taking advantage of the presure differential between your charge tube and the air box..... with the pito system, you can run smaller jets for better non boost response, and then use the higher presure about 1.5lbs in the presure tube for the carb vents... which one would with a pito system get from the airbox.... its a great way system period.... with this system not only do you get bet air to fuel ratio at non boost, but you can tune for air-presure temp diffs with a simple jet change on the tube.... no down sides to this system if you know what you are doing... saves tons of time when you think about changing the pito jet vs. a carb jet change..... as for the intercooler,,, it usually contributes to great drop in presure than a simple small air box.... if you are a techo type guy and have a bender system, check out the differential on his system,, his intercooler system is extremely effecient....
