Default HKS 40mm Standard wastegate question.

Picked up one of these but it didn't have the fittings for the wastegate signal and BOV ports. None of the fittings I have seems to want to fit. Anybody know what the thread size is...or better yet anybody have a couple of fittings?

time for a whole other socket/wrench set

i think there is a discount or autozone out by ya, take it there, they usually have those little chains that have prethreaded things and just try to match the threads...i would think it to be 10mmx1.25 but i could be thinking of something totally different.

Hey fucktards, the old guy may only have 9 fingers but I've got this base 10 crap down cold.

Looked like maybe a 10 mm to me but not the one I have...probably the other one. I've probably got 10x1 and it's 10x1.25. Damn, John, I thought a bigtime ricer grease monkey like you would know the size just like you know your phone number.

go to cophers, find a eclipse/laser/talon...pull fuel rail bolts off, if they fit, you now have 3 10mmx1.25 bolts and can go home a happy man for just 1 dollar and some time

Yup, what I need is mystery size to -4 fitting so I can pipe the boost pressure in from the turbo scroll to the wastegate. Dave probably has the best idea since I'm overrun with some 1/8 npt to -4 fittings...and have a tap. :d See what happens when I try to not be junkyard about it. I feel a JB Weld party coming on.
