""" So are you saying in a situation where I was running a Hiblow at say 3psi the true impact on the hiblow would really be more like 5psi if using a Vertex diffuser with it?"""

Cody Note - Well it depends. I do not know the exact PSI back pressure that is needed to operate the Vertex diffusers. That discussion is somewhere in the old posts. The final pressure of a Hiblow at 3 psi with Vertex diffuser could be any where from 1 to 3 additional PSI, It would be best to check with a Vertex retailer or find the old PBoss post that discussed this topic. As I recall the discussion was around 3-4 years ago. I doubt I saved this thread. 'esshup' I think was a part of this thread, he should know and was going to take apart a Vertex diffuser to see how it was made. Maybe some member can help with this?.
