Well, I refunded the payments on that one. Sorry comrade. Still cost me $.60 in non-refundable fees apparently.
I think I figured out how to get PayPal to block international payments, I just hope that doesn't mess with you Canadians.

Got an order from Mother Russia this morning - no PM, no UserID, no notes, no extra cash for shipping... Philipp are you here?

Trying to gauge interest here - since the new BNR housings have 1/4" barb fittings, I've been thinking about offerring 1/4" barbed EBCS fittings to match. You would be able to run reducer-free to both turbo fittings and the intake fitting.
Don't want to hijack this thread, so just like this post if it's something you'd be interested in. Thanks!
1/4" EBCS fittings are available now!

Sounds good. We're in pretty good shape. I wasn't expecting Saltysubie to cover the stock location, but he did anyway.Still trying to find 1/4 id vac line around here. No one has any in stock. Soon as I find some I'll do my writeup for you.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk
More confirmation and pics is always better though.

Awesome pics and write up. Thanks Saltysubie!

Order shipped to unconfirmed address. #dontfraudmebro

Orders shipped and EBCS fittings sent to Saltysubie and discojon. Thanks for helping me test-fit guys.

Interesting - yours is mounted in a different location than mine. Mine is installed per GrimmSpeed's video:

The boost nipple on your turbo is different too...
-
Perfect, if I send you some EBCS fittings would you be willing to get them installed and post a couple pics?
-
No problem, I think 90% have the GS one.
I've found that different boost gauges come with different size line - but mine came with the smallest of the bunch, 1/8", and I was able to stretch it on the middle port of the tee. Msprank has used one to plumb a gauge and was happy with it.
-
Well for me, it's straight-90-90 for the GS mount location. The COBB's bracket however mounts it closer to the inlet and I think comes with 3 90s. The "port 1" fitting isn't strictly necessary, but it does let you eliminate the factory reducer for one less potential problem.
Trying to figure out if there's a simple way for you guys to configure your orders, or I might just default to include 2 90s and a straight and handle special requests via PM. <shrug>

^ Good to hear, enjoy!
Quick pic here at my desk till I get home and take some better ones...

That's the new 1/4" barb fittings in my GS EBCS. That's the stock straight-90-straight config as comes from GS, but I think straight-90-90 would be better and keep the vac line off the alternator...

More shiny things to buy!

EBCS fittings should arrive this evening.
-
Woo, 3 more orders going out today. Thanks guys!
And with that I placed another order with the manufacturer - more tees and this time I added the 1/4" EBCS fittings to my order. I'll post more about them when they arrive.

Good to hear, thanks guys

Adding $4 should cover it, send me a PM with your paypal and I'll invoice you if you want.
-
Good point, that's where COBB says to mount theirs. I'll probably let the buyers pick what they want then.
-
That's awesome! I won't be selling the EBCS's themselves, just replacement fittings.Turkeylord, if you test these EBCS's and they are proven reliable, send me some cards and I can put them in each Subie turbo box we sell.They will fit any EBCS that has 1/8" NPT ports. That would include all MAC valve based EBCSs such as the GrimmSpeed, COBB, and AEM.

GS includes two 90° fittings and one straight with the LGT model, but I always felt that 3 90s would be better as it wouldn't interfere with the alternator as much. Maybe I can let each buyer choose.

Looks like a pretty solid plan. You might want to check out ID1000 injectors - I know I would've if my car was top feed. Everyone seems to love them and that would give you plenty of room to grow and/or try E85.
