What was wrong with it?

Roof?

Ehhhhhh!

So the "plunger"? On the wastegate was a bit sticky. Removed the gate, opened it up, cleaned it up on the inside, back in and it idles fine and out the exhaust as it should.

Enjoyed Phuket for a few days then feel like going. Bali sounds worse

Yeah, doubt I'd leave the hotel and if I did it would be just to go to a restaurant or bar. Apparently the Balinese are a very pushy people, I could imagine I'd lose my shit fairly quickly.

Mandurah crab festival!? I know they're a bit more country then us city dwellers but someone really needs to teach them about safe sex :sick:

But they sleep with their sisters cos they know where they have been... Sounds safe to me ;)

Gonna happen again but?

Should see the Indians in Phuket, can't imagine much pushier. Have lost my shit before.

Possibly, if it does I'll fork out for a new gate.

Don't give in my friend! Keep it neat and clean and you SHOULDN'T have any problems.

You wouldn't want to let Corey down would you? I can't even imagine his sad face :(

    • 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
