you should take out the whole tee and buy new tee and adapter. when you put the fittings back on you should apply a fair amount of teflon tape. doing this would save your turbo and many headaches. good luck

or you could do it the right way and buy a BSPT adaptor fitting instead of an NPT - the fitting you're using it close but it's one thread off. Good luck
