evening all, 
 
having so much fun lately modifying the water/meth setup in my ute and fixing the crankcase breathing issues. 
 
1- first hill on the way to work, if i hit it at 100 in 5th i would slow to 70 in 4th. now im able  to do 90 in 5th
2- next hill i used to hit at 100 and slow to 80 in 5th. now i can accelerate to 120 in 5th
3- final big hill i used to hit at 110 and fall to 72 in 4th. now i can maintain 100 in 5th or 120 in 4th
still so much more refining and testing to do. tomorrow i have better pyros hooked up for more accurate temp readings.

Show us your ute!

im gonna take a stab in the dark and say about 144km, give or take 300metres

300m sounds good to me. Flat chat on a BMX! Puffing and panting like a dog in a hot car!

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • 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)
