Weekdays are great for L2S practice days at EC.

I've been to 2 or 3, and there have been around a dozen cars at most. And the guys who did it were reasonable drivers in reasonable cars (myself excepted).

But there were a lot more race cars out there, as well as bikes, so you didn't get as much track time.

I'll be out at EC this Saturday for L2S practice since I can't make Friday (and some friends are going). If I get there and there are too many fooli sik cars I'll just go home, but otherwise it'll be nice to get some driving happening.

hmmmm... be watching this space... been wanting to get my car on the track for a while now... is an oil cooler essential? i dont wanna cok my fresh engine

Not essential, but worth while. I have been getting around it for 2/3 years by taking it easy for a few laps after flogging it for a few.

Looks like there is definatly some interest, and we discussed some options at our Committee meeting last weekend, looks like something will go ahead soonish.

Watch this space!

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • 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.
