Posted by zwickyj, May-20-10 01:57 PM
What size fitting would I need if I wanted to tap the compressor housing for vacuum? t3/t4 housing.

sure. get a 90 degree one. helps to angle towards the wastegate better.

First, you will not see vacuum at the compressor housing.

But this is the best option for the line to the wastegate, right ?

you want a 1/8NPT fitting. DO NOT use a 1/4 fitting. There is absolutely not advantage of drilling larger holesin your compressor housing than nec.
Yes a fitting in the Compressor is good for a wastegate.
