Default pneumatic fitting help

Ive seen some people running these fittings and i would really like to run them too but i have a couple ?? i know these are used for pressure and thats how they seal so how do they do with vaccum ??

Does anyone know the size for the top of the tial 50mm bov

it is actually a metric thread but 1/8 npt will work in tial WG and BOV. As far as how they work is the same either way as vacuum or pressure and you dont have to worry about them coming off the barb when you use rubber hose

Doesn't anyone have a kit for sale? I remember seeing someone selling a kit that provided more than enough fittings to do your wastegate and bov. Anyone got a link.

They seal by a crimp collar in the fitting itself.

I personally prefer the Legris stuff over everything else

I got my pneumatic fittings from Speed Theory. There kit uses Legris tubing and fittings.

I use them.. They work awesome. 1/8" fits everything.

Its like a vband in comparison to a 3 bolt flange on an exhaust system.. but with vac lines.
