I am working on a dual QEV for the Cyclone hoppers, This is how I hope it works. The exhaust from the Normal QEV gets directed int a second QEV, this extra air would be in addition to the spring pushing the Piston back, hopefully speeding the Cyclone up. The shaft of the piston will have to be O-ringed to stop air from exiting the piston tube and some sort of fitting ( I'm thinking of part of a compression fitting) will be needed to allow the piston shaft to move in its elliptical path. I think its doable , any Ideas. |

you would need a double action ram in order for this to work.

I don't know , I would not replace any internals, just redirect the air to help push the piston back hopefully increasing spead.

well there is nothing to hold the pressure on the opposite side of the ram to make it push. Therefor you would need a double action ram. The idea isn't very bright anyway. Obviously you don't know how QEV's work.

Although I value your opinion , it appears you did not read the entire post, I made mention of blocking the cylinder. As for the QEV , it is venting the gas being pushed back by the piston/ram . Why not use that gas, route it to the other side of the the piston via a QEV's input and mount it in the same fashion as it would be under a "normal" setup. When the cyclone piston moves forward in normal fashion any air/ gas trapped would be exhausted through the second QEV. That being said , there may not be enough energy to make a difference, you don't know if you don't try. |

yeah, and i'm not sure it wouldn't mess your cyclone up. |

98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun. If you would like to bonus ball these idiots put this in your sig.

Sounds cool, but also appears like you're trying to overcomplicate the design. If you can, I'd love to see a diagram of what you're trying to do. Best of luck.

Theres no pressure to speak of coming from the exhaust of a cylinder. Maybe half a PSI, if that.
If I had a guage laying around Id measure it. But alas. |

well any pressure being displaced will be equalized on the other side.

No Pressure ,Well that burst my bubble. Thanks for the input, I'll shelve this one.
