Sorry it took so long to reply.

I started with a Mi-T-M 3505 (which I bought used) and it just didn't sling enough water (4.7 gpm) to get the job done in a satisfactory amount of time. I purchased a BCE HydroMax from Randy and Brian in Georgia which I am very pleased with. I'm shooting 7.5 gpm at 3600 psi through a Mosmatic 21". I still use the Mi-T-M for curb work and rinsing. Future plans include upgrading the pump on the Mi-T-M to 5.6 gpm/3500 psi and replacing the unloader to match--- possibly a KZ-1 flow-type. The 20hp Kohler on the Mi-T-M should handle it fine. Haven't finished all of my research on that yet.

In the meantime, I'm thinking that rigging the Mi-T-M unloader to bypass into the tank instead of the pump will help some with my fluctuating pressure problems.
