Oh I'm sorry I just looked back over the photos, I was under the impression you cut the big square out with the metal bung attached and cut a square hole, then JB welded the exposed plastic.. Not tapped the hole and used a new fitting with the JB weld only securing the MAP into place and not actually keeping it sealed. If that even makes sense

an oil pan and an intercooler end tank are apples and oranges here. Oil pan sees relatively low pressure compared to boost. If you see crank case pressure equivalent to what you're boosting you have much bigger problems to worry about then if your JB weld is holding. I'm sorry what?? Dynamic pressure? Why would it being flat over a small surface make it any less prone to failure in a system that has to maintain both vacuum and positive pressure?

i've used JB weld on plastic end tanks before, don't get me wrong it will hold. But it was a temporary solution, the Oil that is thrown accumulates where ever there is any kind of crack/depression and it will wear down the plastic. Just seems like you're introducing a point of failure to the system, this is no longer fitting into a cast piece and you're pushing quite a bit of pressure at it. How did the stock solution mount in? was it threaded? I'm not being critical of your work or your solution it just surprised me this is what people opt to do when swapping intercoolers.

seems like it would be easier and more legit to make a pipe for the map sensor and cut the silicone vs modifying a plastic end tank??

just wanted to take a moment to say how awesome you guys are for a vendor, you're extremely competitive with anyone and always have top notch customer service, pretty much always getting my parts out to me same day as i order them.. i've bought my worth of multiple cars through you and will continue to use you.

these were shipped via greg@QBM, greg was on business for a week and shipped them the week he returned.. and refunded FIT his shipping costs because of the delay.
All of this time i did my best to stay in constant contact with FIT to assure i wasnt out to screw him over. Sorry buddy

took weeks for my x70 projectors to be shipped and was given a run around until i found out that they were shipped almost 2 weeks after he said they were originally shipped.... not really impressed so far and still have yet to receive the projectors.
