its to do a leak test isn't it, so you need a compressor attachment to be able to connect the compressor to fill the system with air.

I understand that, but what do you mean exactly? a quick release connector? isolation valve (which is what I would use)? what size? 3/8" 1/2" 1/4"????

need to know what you have on your compressor, or i will just supply isolation valves, probably at 3/8"BSP fitted into the blanks for filling and venting purposes.

Resurrected!!!  :grin:

Forgot about these so had a bit of a play at the weekend, what do you think?

TIP inlet with gauge, micrometer valve and air line fitting.

Turbo outlet/charge pipe inlet elbow "blank" threaded to accept the valve/gauge assembly and blank for blocking off the TIP breather return. ("puck" inlet)

This is a prototype, used with no problems, secure and does the job well, the finished will be a machined finish and all pipework/valves will match.
