you changing the rotors too.?

Nah, apparently I don't need to. Unless you mean upgrading to cut ones, which I think I'll just use the stockies. Funds are on a budget whilst Rosie is getting paid off :P

Upgrade rotors to DBA slotted items when your stockies are dead. Only real advantage will be heat dissipation with the slotted rotors, so unless you're driving like a fkn lunatic on the streets or tracking the car you won't really get anything out of them other than them looking cool :P

Rosie is going to the track in September so slotted might be nice :3 if it's like $100 extra or whatnot I don't see an issue D: However, budget is a keyword for me :( So stockies it seems haha

As Anthony said, you'll barely notice a difference until you've got a few track days under your belt and you're pushing limits :P

^^ This. Driver skill will make the biggest increase to start with. N/A cars can still get decent times with the right driver behind them. When you go out the first time worry about getting line and length right, and then slowly decrease your brake distance into each corner keeping line and Length right. you will see your times massively improve. Don't worry about speed, timing is where it's at and speed will follow suit.

I'm sure I will get the nickname Putty on the day as I'll probably be putting around the track learning this and that. I've done some V8 track days (go in the V8 "supercar" around the track). So I know a tiny bit about track. Still a novice though :P I'll smack out some Forza 4 the night before and get tuned in :P

    • 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
