get it delivered on a truck... problem solved. call Jack at Citywide towing, he will get your car to your house without breaking shit and he's an SAU member so he gives other SAU members good rates.

Just don't get right foot happy with a car that you just picked up from the docks. Its usually got shitty fuel, a bad tune and fluids that need to be flushed. Chances of someone driving into you is minimal, and if you drive patiently you should be able to get home in one piece.

Although keep in mind if this is your first "dock experience" be very very patient. Take a portable jumpstart kit or fully charged battery, jumper cables, a jerry can, 10mm and 12mm spanner and a phillips screwdriver. And if its a modified car, you'll most probably foul the plugs if you don't start/idle it properly when you crank it after weeks of non running.

Thanks heaps for the tips. I'll definately keep them in mind when im getting my shit ready tomorrow morning.

It's actually not the docks im picking the car up from as the ship landed in Brisabane and then they put it on a train down to Melbourne :D So hopefully it has been started since it landed and had some fuel flow through the system.

Thanks again.. Appreciate it.

      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

      So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
