Ok, so here's the breakdown on the inlet port fittings. Option 1: Use the EBCS's stock 1/8" straight fitting. + Free - Line goes out over alternator - Line has a reducer inline (potential vacuum leak) Option 2: 1/4" 90 fitting. Add you own 1/4" vac line. + No alternator clearance issues - Need to stretch 1/4 vac line onto 3/8" inlet port Option 3: 3/8" 90 fitting. Add your own 3/8" vac (or fuel) line. + No reducer needed + No stretch needed - Fitting is bulky, may contact alternator Here's a pic I took of the EBCS with the 3/8" 90 installed on an 08+ WRX. It was resting on the alternator case. http://i.imgur.com/P4YtoQFl.jpg -

Thanks Brian, tees are on their way! And discojon, 3/8" fitting and vac line headed your way too. -

I'm going to test the clearance on another car tomorrow. Here it is installed on my intake manifold... http://i.imgur.com/JInb7K4l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/jZ3fLxxl.jpg Took about 6.5 inches of 3/8 fuel line from the bleed port to the turbo inlet. Looks like 3 feet of 1/4" vac line should be plenty to hit the boost nipple and WGA on the turbo. -
I replaced all 5 outlets in my daughter's room last night as we're painting. Only got electrocuted twice.

I haven't had a chance yet. Hopefully I can find a local LGT for testing. -

Hrm, that might be tough, I'd have to order 25 each straights and 90s... Maybe someone going to 1/4" would sell you their old set? -

Oh nelly, they're a little chunky http://i.imgur.com/nutzsgYl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/rJQAR1ol.jpg I don't see any reason they won't work though... -

New fittings are due in today already! I think I contacted all my paid orders to see if they wanted replacements... Saltysubie & discojon - would you guys like 3/8" barb 90's as well? -

Well I got antsy and ordered the 3/8 barb fittings. I've had a few orders for EBCS fittings so far - I'll get in touch with everybody when the new fittings come in & send them out gratis if they like. -

There's no additional cost compared to the 1/4 fittings, except for the fact that I'd be overstocked on 1/4" 90s. Then again, that line is never under boost so the reducer isn't that big of a deal. I'll put it this way - if someone wants 1/8 npt to 3/8 barb fittings, I'll make the investment in a bag of 25. -

I'm thinking about switching up one of the 90° EBCS fittings up to a 3/8ths inch barb to better match the fitting on the inlet. I need to pick up a little 3/8ths vac line and check the inlet. I was able to stretch 1/4 on there pretty readily, but 3/8ths might be better... -

I do actually have a quote to produce the boost gauge cross fittings, but their cost would be 4x as expensive as the tees. Just not sure they would move at what I would have to sell them for. No problem man, maybe if I find a little time I'll send some 1/4" line your way too. -

Shipped another batch to m sprank. Shipped on Friday, delivered Monday. 1,430 Miles as the crow flies. I'm impressed, USPS. 7 tees left in stock, need to order some more. Plenty of EBCS fittings though... -

No problem Philipp, wish the international shipments were easier to deal with.
