Is there an advantage to one of these energizer/step-up kits for the Jacuzzi YJ??
Is one better than the other?
Are the parts interchangeable?
Any help would be great -> my pump is f*&ked the way it is right now.

My understanding is that for the YJ pumps, any changes you can make are good ones-especially the energizer kits. Im not familiar with which one to buy though, try a search, this has been covered before.

I would guess the North Americain Marine Jet would be better....... they own jacuzzi after all. Give them a call and ask for Jason Hill, he can answer all your questions

contace duane at HTP www.hi-techperformance.com (http://www.hi-techperformance.com) he has a special right now on the converted pumps. 1695.00 I believe on one already assembled and ready to go. I would think that the aggressor would be better. If you are thinking about doing it yourself buy the deluxe kit with the new shaft with mechanical seal already installed. If not you will break 3 seals trying to figure out how to put one on. It's not that much more but to be honest with you you would be better off buying one already put together and ready to go. Less worry and headache........

Looks like we have a whole new group of cheerleaders in here now eh omega?? :D
Hicks i think your migh be talking about american turbine and aggressor. Both sell these kits, north american marine sells/makes jacuzzi which wouldn't make a conversion kit for their pumps i would think. From what i notice, all the conversion kits already come with a new shaft and the seal pack installed. $1200 bucks better buy you something right? :)
