Vacuum Pump??

[red347lx]

I was wondering when the application of a Vacuum Pump would be necessary? Who runs them on their vehicles and how have they benefited from using them. I have low tension rings in my new set up and was told to run one especially running N2O. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, who makes a good pump? Thanks in advance:handshake:

The best pump is Star Machine....the best for the $ is probably the moroso. I run a Star.

How much did you benefit from using one to not using one?

There are variables...main one is the ring package.

At what point do you know you would benefit from running one?

My simple advise is, and don't take this wrong please, listen to the guy who spec'd your ring-pack as has been suggested already...Your question leads me to beleive you are second guessing the builder. Most people I know don't run low-tensoin oil rings anymore. The added benefit, lower rotational friction, won't offset the ring flutter and oil contamination you'll experience without a pump.
