Far out Luke!! Nice work. You doing that yourself? I wouldnt have a clue what to do after getting the valley covers off lol.

Yeah got Simon helping me out but it's getting there. Sending the head off to Rhemac tomorrow for a port/polish and getting them to drop the Poncams in while they are at it. Then I'll pick it up, get Simon to bolt the head back on with the new ARP head studs and head gasket, complete with the Tomei oil restrictor. Then it's up to me to bolt on the rest. Oh happy days!!!

Looking at the bores however, all seems well, no pitting on the pistons from detonation or the like so the bottom end seems in pretty good nick thankfully! Just need to get a retune after it's all back together, then back to the track!

Yeah, there are a few hoses I'm looking at that I'll replace while I'm there. The motor is in very good condition really, no pitting on the pistons, no scores in the bore and still has the cross hatching. Looks like it should be sweet for some time to come :blink:

I should hope so if your tuner did a good job lol

    • 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
