bondango Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I want to know what fittings and hose size to order to use for the actuator hoses on a greddy type r wastegate? Think the thread size on the 2 ports is 1/8 NPT dependant on your boost control soleniod port size and also boost reference port size use the same hose tail fitting size on the wastegate. If using silicone hose, buy a good quality hose, use metal securing clips, and heat protect the hose with sleaving. You can use AN fittings instead of hose tail fittings, and use a 1/8 NPT to 3AN fitting, and run 3AN braided hosing instead of Silicone, this would be the preffered method.

hodge Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I've used 1/8npt to -3an fittings. Check out my project thread, I've just installed then so it should be in the mast couple of pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bondango Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 thanks hodge i just found that. by the way where did you order the fittings? Stephen you can get them from any good Hydraulics supplier, theres a few down your way- AA Hydraulics, Proturn, Northern Hydraulics They use JIC as a standard, which is the same as AN, so your looking JIC 3 to 1/8 NTP adapters, they also could make the lines up for ya too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
