Hi,

Pasi, how do you except to connect the Pos reg to the BOV? It seems that on your sketch you'll build a new 2nd Pos stage...

Wich is the sketch soft you use?

Best Regards.

I will modify the Xstream reg to fit inside a custom fitting.

I use Catia V5.

As I understand it you will move the "mouthpiece" hole about 90 degrees?
Unfortantly I belive that Xstream/Jetstream will be the most difficult 2:nd stages to modify the gas flows with and are looking forward to see how this will end up. Keep us posted!

I think it's the opposite. Xstream is the easiest to mod. The reg body is cylindrical almost completely when you cut the mouthpiece away. Then you drill a new hole up. The old hole is blocked by an adapter. The adapter is also quite a simple model.

I am not thinking about the shape of the house but the internals with the smal holes, I belive it is very important in wich directions those are compared to the mouthpiece hole. As I wrote I am looking forward to see how it will work out, so keep up the project. If it don´t work out, all you have to do is to buy a new house.
