I'm not sure what that word means? Chode


But for noise reduction, longer is better from what I have read in the past. Tko's are 3/4" but 5" long min. I have made them at 5/8" and 6" long up to 1-14" diameter by as little as 4". From my limited experience I would say fat is good as long as there is length to it. I believe that over the length of a tube, the air is stripped away and if you use a short tube, the air does not have the room to be stripped away. All that said, if you don't care about noise, then any length and diameter is good for what ails you!
I have one in the truck that needs an adapter made to fit my Church Gun. It is about 3" long and 1-1/2" diameter. Won't make any difference in noise, but I think it will look cool!

Sorry! Didn't mean to ruffle any feathers...thanks for the info arkmaker, I want it to be about 3" with roughly a 2" OD, but I don't want to waist time if its not a substantial reduction. ???

I don't know what your willing to spend but Neil makes some awesome "fat" air strippers.

Or you can ask someone on the web-sites who are more up to speed with your (unfortunate) choice of words.
