Martin has copped no shit, he misses a front squat every Saturday in the gym.

Martins claim to fame?

He has all the GPC teen WR in the 82.5kg class

He has all the junior GPC WR in the 82.5kg class

He has the Open Men GPC WR for deadlift

I have lost count of his National Records

He is sponsored by Ironedge, features on the cover of their catalogue, and inside

His best lifts, raw, are 255kg squat, 160kg bench and 290kg deadlift. He is 20 years old

    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
