that's the stock fitting. it looks like a reverse flare type. It unscrews and there is another thread you can use. If you look at my build thread I lost that little fitting so I had no easy way of finding what thread the turbo was. So i tapped two holes on that flange, and drilled two matching holes in a scrap piece of aluminum, then I tapped that 1/8 npt and bolted it on with a touch of sealant. If I ever want to go back to the stock style, there is nothing preventing me from doing so.(I found my fitting too)

why did you do that ? isnt the 12cm housing like .89 a/r and the 14cm .97 a/r ?


this is what i found on one of the sites;
6 cm2 = 0.41 A/R
7 cm2 = 0.49 A/R
8 cm2 = 0.57 A/R
9 cm2 = 0.65 A/R
10 cm2 = 0.73 A/R
11 cm2 = 0.81 A/R
12 cm2 = 0.89 A/R
14 cm2 = 0.97 A/R
15 cm2 = 1.05 A/R
16 cm2 = 1.13 A/R
17 cm2 = 1.29 A/R
19 cm2 = 1.37 A/R
