I also used NP That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt

So M12 and sealant should be fine? NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.

1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm. So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.

Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell

ok. Yea, then I would need to remove the turbo and weld an adapter on to it instead, if I fuc* this one up.

Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose. and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.

Where is the most common place to locate it? Disappointing that Garrett won’t make a fitting for it since they know everyone will use it

After throttle body? I’ve heard that you should not do that. Even if you look at the diagrams they show you that you should take boost from turbo.

What do you mean with ”hot side”? From what I’ve heard is that you should take it as close to the turbo as possible?

Like on the intercooler pipe between turbo and intercooler? Still weird why they don’t put an output on the turbo since you will need one. There is one for the RPM of the turbo.. are they doing this because they want you to take the boost reference from somewhere else except the turbo?

That wouldn’t work especially well? 🤔

Where is the best location for boost pressure source when running mac 3port boost solenoid? my new turbo does not have a fitting for that on the compressor housing. how come Garrett make a turbo without that? im confused

What do you think? Is this the OEM S15 differential or NISMO one? The number someone wrote on diff housing tells that it is Nismo one but inside it looks like just a oem s15?
