Yes, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Pete for coming over to help me with a massive dump, couldn't have done it without you... :P

Here are some photos, (suppose its about time I make a build thread though lol)

Here is all the shininess in its final location:

Old vs new: 691a06ef-7622-4146-8d36-ac6db647780e_zps

This will probably cause the best improvement, the old throat was LITERALLY a 1" square passage! (Fck you Mitsubishi):

I did the front last weekend, was considerably easier...:

A friend of mine works at the APS centre in Melbourne, posts up photos of cars he tunes. Last night he posted this...

280hp AFTER a performance tune. That's cute. Makes you wonder why you'd even bother spending that much money if you're going for performance?!

Spent bout 2 hrs in nistune today.

Swapped ecus over between pnk and silver bullet. Just to rule out the ecu as my issue. Both ecus in caras car work fine. Spent remainder of the time tinkering with mine. Think I am getting somewhere. Idle is good. Next step is mounting the wideband and going for a drive ;)

    • 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 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
