The box had only been there like a week and already made hisself/herself at home. I was happy to leave him alone, but my boss flicked him/her to the ground and smashed it with a plank of wood. :(

we then BBQ'd it and ate it nice and crispy like.

$60 for changing tyres on 2 sets and balancing 1 set. Not bad.

My local place fkd me last time I went in there...

I asked how much it would cost for them to flip my two rear tyre on the rim... Since they had some camber wear and I wanted to use the remaining outer tread for deca... I was told we can do that for $22... I asked "For both the rear tyres?" "Yep we'll do them both". so I was thinking "Finally a place that isn't going to rip me off".

I go down the street, have some lunch, come back and suddenly it's $44... $22 each... fuuuuuu, classic bait and switch. Said that was bullshit, and he dropped it to "$40, is the lowest we can do"

*rage*

Eh?

facepalm

    • 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
