Thought I would share.
Flow inducer I built, trenched and buried new poly and power. Did a csv and new tank, plus a csv monitor. Nice and quiet, more efficient I'm thinking then my old 2 line jet. I wrapped the exposed steel to poly connection in blue skin after the leak test. I held the pit less in the well case with anchoring epoxy. I left my old jet pump setup together while I did the work since I could only poke away at it in the evenings after work. The trench is about 5 feet.

I got a lot of the ideas from here, and a local concrete and pipe supplier who stocks pumps, fittings, tanks and everything else. They were very knowledgeable and helpful.

My flow inducer is actually sdr 26, its got a larger ID then sdr 36 (only by 1/8), so slightly easier to keep the pump away from the sides, and they recommended the T for the inlet, just to help avoid sucking anything up from the bottom direction.

The csv is great, I run low water pressure to conserve usage, before I had my 2 line jet at 20-30 since it had a hard time making over 30lbs, but with my sub at 20-40 I get a constant, 32-34psi. Very happy with this.
