This is a rather self indulgent thread I know but I'll feel better if I talk about it. The car is at ICE Hospital to see why it bled itself dry and to get fixed up. Hopefully its nothing worse than a blown hose. I have all confidence that the guys at ICE will be able to fix it. If anyone can save it, they can.

Visiting hours are between 1pm and 4pm. Feel free to go and offer your best wishes. Both myself and the Line would be grateful. But I know it'll pull through.

:mad:

i'm better... :)

i wouldn't my line off the road for that long.. all it does it depreciate during that time, better off driving it or leaving everything until you can afford the whole job done fully. Maybe that is why my turbo upgrade is sooo far away :D

The cars being off the road has nothing to do with not being able to afford it. My car is simply waiting for the water pump to go back on and then the fuel system fixed and then I should be out at the strip again trying to pull better times. Now that I have my Nittos, I'm hoping we can race by June. The other car is being put back together to sell.

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

    • 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
