How about this setup? That is what I am running and no problems at all it runs very strong at all rpm's and not even starving for air at all. Good job on your airlogs, u will have no problems at all with it, by the way, what size motor are you running? If it is a 2276cc, the 2" pipe may be too small and will affect the performance of the motor, I know this for a fact that it did'nt work for me until I went larger diameter and it really is a huge difference on how mine ran.

It's a 2332. I hope it works but if not it's only $20 in pvc. I haven’t ran it yet so I don't know. What did you notice with the smaller tubing? Should I just go to 3" pvc?

It ran like it was getting too much fuel and not enough air and also blowing alot of black smoke as well, went larger and man what a difference! I went from 2" PVC that has a 1-3/4" ID to a 2-1/2" aluminum bored out .125" over to make it 2-5/16" ID

I’m starting to figure out the install of my industrial air cleaner set up. I need to figure how to mount the air box because it didn’t come with any mounting. I have some round gas tank straps I think will work. I hope this is ok. Do I need to worry about the T not being in the center? What do you guys think so far?

Plumberpill are those the street 90’s you were talking about?
