Love the 2012 SJ graphics on the Blaster. Exotic signs? I actually hit them up for a kit like that a while back. They said they made one for a white background blaster once. Im guessing thats it.

Sick! I hope you don't mind if I ask you a quick question....the ski with the dry pipe....do you have dual cooling running to the manifold and then one head fitting overboard and the other feeding the chamber? I'm in the process of setting up mine and this is how I plan on doing it.

Yes I run dual cooling, one circuit runs the mani/head and the other circuit runs the exhasut jacket and stinger.
One word of advice - MSD Enhancer, remove it and run stock electrics if you want to run WOT for extended periods.

Hmmm....I had mine that way and I just tapped another fitting into the mani because the motor was getting too hot...hoping the pipe doesn't get too hot now.

I plan on doing extensive testing before riding around WOT...I do have an enhancer, lol. This dry pipe is becoming a headache but I love the power.

I'd heard one to mani, one to pipe, both head outlets over board stinger overboard

Hmm. I had mine that way and the water coming out of the pissers from the motor was scorching hot. Then again, the motor cooling line ended up coming off so maybe I never had it hooked up tight enough. :smashfreakB:

Yes that's how mine is, badly explained by me!
I guess I can always cap off the extra fitting on the manifold if need be.

Right mapped out how mine is setup, the P1, P2 & P3 are the pissers overboard. Before the stinger you can run a flow control valve or even better just a restrictor in the pipe made of brass with a hole drilled through it to allow some water into the stinger. I also use a Y before the manifold to split one feed into two at the manifold.

Hope this helps..

You guys have been a huge help, thanks so much....the only question I still have is that I have an overboard fitting near the stinger end of the chamber in addition to the water feed fitting for the stinger. I don't see the overboard fitting in your diagram. What do I do with it??

[I'm sorry if I am threadjacking too, it's just been really hard for me to find info on dry pipe cooling circuits for the Blaster seeing as how it's not a very commonly used pipe. I'm learning quite a bit from this thread, thanks for your patience with a noob!]

I believe P1 is the overboard fitting near his stinger. You should only have 3 total, but of course there are many ways. Personally, I would be feeding both lines from the pump into the mani and have a third off the head into the chamber. Cool motor, hot pipe is good rule of thumb.

Thanks tshank, I was thinking P1 was attached to that stinger line but I think you're right.

I appreciate your advice and I've learned a lot in this thread. You can run cooling circuits almost any way you want as long as everything stays optimally cool.

Controlling the water flow exiting the water jacket is how you can have consistency in your pipe temp while not affecting the cooling of your motor.
 
i have a Riva dry pipe... the only difference i can see is that i have another outlet from the water jacket, before the stinger.

below is how i am thinking of setting up the cooling. RED jetworks FCV inline w stinger, and was thinking restricting the flow with a main jet as well, fcv will keep water out at low RPM, but the jet will still regulate how much water the pipe gets. probably make up some sort of fitting where i could throw inline and still be able to take the jet out and put in a different one. OR do you guys like using the water injection sprayers better? What are you guys using?

but i am thinking that 4 pissers is a bit too much. im running a 701 in my superjet, almost never WOT for longer than 10 seconds. To my knowledge, the pipes are suppose to run a little bit warmer, so could i take the two pissers coming off the pipe and just throw them on a 'y' fitting and out the same pisser?

after i get this setup going next year i am thinking i will see how warm the water is coming off my motor and maybe throw some adjustable water restrictors on there. i can ride in anywhere between 80+ deg water to 65 deg water. so i kind of need the ability to regulate my water temperature. (any thoughts on that? right / wrong / different way?)
