| Did booth, liked em both, but the 900 is the better of the twi IMO. I agree the kit is a bit restricted, which is why I bored mine out more  The cap was crudely cut, so I rounded off the "wings". I liked the kit though, not bad. I could have bought it all cheaper, but I went for convince

  | Gresham, bought it all cheaper may i ask where?
I have both 900 and 1200 and would like to do these mods. I might even get rid of the 1200 and add 2 more 900's. |

I really have only done a few but really think the time and bucks invested are worth it. Great flow and the size is relatively small compared to some larger more expensive pumps. I guess reliability will be the key. Not sure how these will hold up over time.
Best, Scott |
