VSI piping

I need some advice on VSI piping. The literature I have suggests that I drop a minimum of 12" to create a heat trap in the injection loop. Can I bring the piping back up after dropping?

Sure
in fact you better to create the loop! The deeper the better on the loop also. Drop to thre floor and back up if you can.

thanks for responding. this is my first crack at VSI.0 -
Just finished
my first vsi. Hot Rod gave me the assurance on my desin. I sized my injection loop off the tekmar sizing chart. I dropped both my injection loops 18" and then came back up to my manifold. I installed a circuit balancing valve but have not fine tuned it yet. The tekmar vsi control seems to be injecting only whats needed. Good luck. Patrick0
