Boost Tube Adapter Thread Size for Tapping
What's the "normal" boost sensor tube adapter thread size? I want to buy an AIH plug & drill & tap it, but can't remember what the size the threads are. Anyone know?
I know, go outside and look at it. I'm discussing this with a friend of mine over email and can't remember what size it is. We'll look at it for sure, but I'm thinking someone here knows...

Yep. Might as well give that extra air the easiest time possible getting to the heads...

Thanks Chris. I went looking for it on their site but couldn't find it. Must be in a weird spot...
But they don't say the tap size anyway. I'm pretty sure it's 1/8 NPT which I'll confirm today. I think $29 is a bit much, so I'm doing my own.

I drilled and tapped my AIH delete plug. 1/8" NPT. I put a compression fitting with the 90*. Pic of it in my mods gallery.

Yeah, sticks. Single Shots Stage IIs. I have the glow plugs already to put in while the VCs are off.
