Depends on what else is in your car, (or out of it) but usually a small whine can be heard with the helical, but you can still talk with normal voice levels to each other.

Mine is full trim, with three fuel pumps and can just be heard with the radio off. Fuel pumps draw more "whats that noise?" from passengers than the box.

If you wont fly down, i might have to drive up!

Tom,

If we can get a good idea from Sime's car then it might be a waste of time flying down there to see the same box?

My mind is made up, it's just the other the sphincter of the universes now.

Got one?

Not yet ..will probably be on the cards soon enough though.I can't see the stock box liking similar power levels to your car and surviving long :laugh:

My brother has a PPG dog box in his car ..makes a normal synchro box seem sooo bloody slow.

sorry mate..not following ?

Are you organising a group buy or something.

wouldn't say a "group buy" as such, but there will be a few of us from Sydney buying a product from PPG in the next few months. I'm going helical dog, Joey is undecided.

I'll give you a call and chat to you about it?

I'm going to have to hold off a while longer on the box .. Still need to spend cash elsewhere first unfortunately .

yeah no need to see the same thing twice!

get them all on the same set as you paul and everyone will be big winners!

I'm doing my best, Tommy Turtle! Joey is definitely undecided. It all depends on Sime1's car!

Paul I spoke too tom he said he no someone called Paul that was going to fly down to ppg to test his car out. I gather that's you? give me like a week or so and I'll come pick you up in my car see for your self

Yeah mate. That's me.

That would be fantastic. Can't wait to see this bad boy!

    • 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
