    I have a Steamvac RD5 Portable which is running 2x 2 stage Lamb motors in series. Specs of motors :128 inch of H20 lift 115 CFM approx 530air watts each.
    Running parallel to the machine (it is plumbed into the side of the portable ) i have a booster box running 2 x 3 stage Lighthouse LH6765-od-240v vac motors in series , specs are 151 H2O lift 120CFM 651 air watts.
    so it is running two pairs of 2 vacs in series running in parallel but they all run through 1 2 inch riser. would i get a performance increase if i put in another 2 inch riser for the booster box to run through. i also have the option to run the same motors in the booster as what are in the portable.

    Hmmm, well I would have you call Ed Valentine on this one. He is the inventor of the booster and it seems most follow his lead in development.
