^^^^ + 50, each time a custom turbo kit car comes in 50% of the time they have the HD couplers, they rip, strech, tear, and are not oil/fuel friendly. Each time the car had massive boost leaks at each coupler.. they are not ment to see heat and extreme pressure, to each his own. but I have yet to see a HD coupler not leak boost, even a little (.5PSI!!), but for that have to get to work fix, it they work

I remember with JSimon's car we made a pass and boost would build slooooow and only goto 17lbs. Something was missing. CFM maybe? Looked at the datalogs and 17lbs was reached by 7,000RPM. Look at the turbo back by the firewall and there is a hole the size of a quarter. That's one of many incidents with the ghetto Home Depot couplers.
