ok

I rode to work today... took me one hour. The bike path didnt go all the way :P had to ride with traffic on guildford road

You are a lot better off crossing the railway line and riding the other side. Much quieter and much less chance of the last words you ever hear being "sorry mate, I didn't see you....."

Good to see you are getting the miles up, do you have a speedo/odo on your bike? If not, get one. It is amazing the difference you see when you have things like avg speed and time taken to pace yourself against. Plus, they give you a max speed reached to show off to your mates after you have ridden down Greenmount :wave:

- not to mention the ability to draft!

oh yeh that makes it soooo much easier :D

I went all out today, no bag or anything holding me back on the way home, 25 mins from Ozzie Park to Greenwood. was keeping up with the guys that I usually can't today.

Work has a shower, you feel so much better after having a shower to get all the sweat off before work.

    • 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.
