i bought a 1 3/4" Compressor Outlet Pipe from dejontool and it didn't come with the pressure fitting on it. is there a way i can still install this part with out the fitting or is there a easy way to add one on with out it causing a boost leak.... i have no boost controller yet would that help solve the problem if i installed one? thanks
 
Well I successfully tapped my compressor housing for the vacuum fitting. Let me just say that I am very pleased with the results. I will never again recommend using the BOV line as a wastegate pressure source. My BOV now operates more efficiently (IE. faster and cleaner). It no longer flutters, and it closes much quicker also. And, it is nice to have that short hose there instead of coming from the TB to the BOV to the wastegate.....

I just tapped my outlet elbow, drilled a hole, used a tap, took an old vac fitting of another manifold, sealed it with rtv on the threads and it was all good. :cool:
