Hi, the bolt on top of my inlet manifold has a output on the top, and one metal pipe coming off that was a feed to the leaking rubber pipe that went to the servo on the metro.

I dont htink ill need both, mainly because i dont know what they could go to, i dont have a servo. Maybe i could use the other for a dump valve, but is there a bolt that i can get for this then without the hole as a side exit for the servo piping? Or i think now that i can use one of these for the boost guage, and one for the dump valve?

Thankyou!

hi, feeble, i've ditched the servo banjo bolt and replaced it with a 9/16th unf (i think) bolt into which i've drilled and tapped a thread to take the 't' piece hosetail from the turbo compressor housing. now i can run both dump valve and boost guage from the same point on the inlet where they should be. replace the 't' piece hosetail with one from boost solenoid valve as you only need a single outlet to go to your bleed valve/mbc. hope this makes sense??
