I bought a Sicce return that pumps 2500gph max. My system can handle 1400gph max. The plumbing goes up almost five feet, includes three 90 degree elbows, a T that splits the return line into two different returns jets, and then on each of the returns I will be installing a Y attachment for a total of four RFGs by VCA.

What would the equivalent head pressure be with each of these joints? Will the 2500gph be reduced to 1400 or less?
