I actually have met plenty of tradies in my time (as have most people) and as al said, this would be 80% of them.

I also have a couple of mates that work FIFO in the W.A. mines and guess what...

They are both 101% Strayan

They both drive heavily modified V8 utes

They only holiday in Thailand/Bali where they only eat white people food, get full sleeve tatts and absorb 0% culture.

They rock cheap shit +11ty offset rims

They only drink Australian beer.

They listen to nothing but JJJ all day every day

They watch every sporting event known to man

AND

They get wasted on EVERY... SINGLE... FLIGHT...

This fits most of the FIFOs I've met here in WA to a tee. Groovin The Moo festival was full of them, which is basically a JJJ festival.

So accurate, in fact, that you should consider a career in marketing; a profession that encourages stereotyping. Bloody marketers, stereotyping pigs, all of them!

Girl I know doing life drawing for her hen's tonight... you working?

does the CT9 plug need to be wired in or is their a connector at both ends? If it just plugs in you are welcome to borrow mine for a day.

Also doesn't Scotty have an EVO that he isn't wen driving right now?

found a pink 2004 CS lancer at pick a part

and hey presto, same plug

the plug is part of the main harness - wired in the DSS box and the engine management system, who ever wired these things in will know if you have your seal belt undone

yeah so all good

v happy now

just need to "fit it" so that its in the engine bay

What I think hamish is trying to say is.

80% of fifo's are the stereo type he states.

and 100% of those fifos in his 80% barrier are tradies.

other 20% who dont fall into the stereotype, engineers :P

So, All fifo tradies are what hatish states.

Muahahahahaha

    • 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
