Scare monger!! Have you seen what a grinder will do , not to mention in the hands of someone who doesnt use one often.

Yes, grinders are great at cutting things, principle design function if I'm not mistaken, I'm fairly sure an airsaw won't just bounce off flesh if you get in the way........they just stop quicker, but can still give a decent hack. Plus the thing is physically awkward to use in the confined space.

People need to take some responsibility for their actions, I suggested what worked perfectly fine for me as I'm not a complete retard and treat tools with respect, and if I've not used one before I'd get someone who is skilled at using it to do the job. Hence why if someone posted "the best way to do the job is on a lathe" I wouldn't be running out to give it a crack, as I have NFI how to use one and would end up getting clocked by a solid piece of metal.

Personally I'd be more concerned about him using a stanley knife to cut the soft foam, they don't know when to stop and so many people have bad technique it's not funny.

I gave him the easy rat and peanut butter option....

Did woodwork in school, everytime I used a lathe, I'd picture the tool I'm using being flicked around and stab myself in the head :unsure:

Though an easier and cleaner option I would think to be is just simply use a Stanley knife with blades like this:

Very clean and precise cut, those blades in the picture are much more stronger and firmer to work with compared to your packaging/box cutting knifes. Though it may take some time to slice through hard plastic (unless there is a metal frame that I don't know of).

I'd rather clean slice my finger off with that than having bits of me ending up like a meat pie.

    • 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
