Percy,



My reader does not let me see your email adress adress.  



You can email your questions to my brother and myself directly.  He runs 

10psi with a BEGI System III 1.6, and I run 11.5psi with a Autorotor 1.8.  I 

live in NJ.  He lives in the SF Bay area.  I'm the unlucky one... eh what??
