Form over function you answered your questions. Here's a pic of a friends car for reference. with 235 stretched over 11" rims.. It looked great! But not after the pole had anything to say. He is a hoon so I started meme'ing his picture of it lol and sent them to him and his brother

whats that got to do with fitment?

whats that got to do with fitment?

It's quite hard to lose traction in a stock BMW. With their safety clutches and all. Try fitting 11" rims under those guards without 235. I still had to flare the guards to fit. Stretched tyres are to Blame here. He wouldve been fine with smaller rims and non concrete stretch

What's done to your car engine wise. Just a GTX 3071r and stock internals? How much boost again?

Mate is asking about your car, he just got a s14a too i think

Nah it's built just the head isn't too flash ATM.. Or so I think..

And it's running 19psi I think..

Cool beans,

I think he's gonna be building up the s14a

Just linked him to your mate Leigh Kelly's album

    • 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. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
