Vacuum nipple for compressor hole
I have a turbonetics t3/t4 turbo with the hole in the compressor to run a vacuum line to it. I just want to know if anyone has had any luck finding one thats like a 90 degree angle (so it faces up) npt to vacuum nipple sort of device. hopefully that made sense. i figured i could probably find it at a local automotive store, anyone know of anywhere online i could order it for cheap from. i'm lazy.

Re: Vacuum nipple for compressor hole (Boofster)
like what about the one on the turbo pictured above? anywhere i can order one like that from because im guessing something like that with the 90 degree angle can't be found locally (already looked at pep boys, they had a straight out one). i also couldn't find one with a 3/16" hose barb. can anyone point me in the right direction as to where to order one like the one on the turbo above. thanks

I looked hard and long for one like in the pic, I just can't find them. They usually come stock on Turbonetics turbos with the intergral gate setup.
I ended up using a male/female 90° NPT (1/8"), then used a straight 1/8" NPT to barb fitting. Much easier to find for me locally. Looks stupid but who gives a **** really.
