I'll just have to wait for APD's reply to my e-mail.

As I see it, it might be one of the following:

1. Wrong assembly (wrong lung)
2. They have discontinued the old type of lungs
3. My body is not built for the Inspiration

Petter,
I have the same problem as you. The Tee pieces seem to be further forward on the vision than they were on the classic. For me the hose between the Tee piece and the Mouthpiece can be kinked, because it is too long. This could be a problem, as it will, for sure, increase work of breathing, especially at depth. It is important to configure the hoses so they are not kinked, and gas flow is not impeded.
It could be necessary as suggested below, to relocate the counterlung. Alternatively it could be necessary to modify the hose lengths to ensure a kink free route.
(I haven't asked MP about this as you have already asked the same question so I hope to see the answer here or on the Inspiration list)

Answer from APD (Short version):
The sizes are of course different
So I'll just have to re-arrange the unit to fit me :-)

Solved my situation. The MP hose to the ADV was a bit too long and pushed the Tee forward on the inhale side. Sawed an inch off. Solved.
