I considered that, but it will only work if there is a smooth/flat surface for that gasket to seat on. Since the manifold was meant to have a tube mounted in it, I'm doubting the presence of a suitable gasket surface.volvolugnut wrote: ↑16 Apr 2022, 08:20 Use an 18 mm x 1.5 oil drain plug with copper face gasket?
Something like this.

There are two questions here.
There is a bung which bolts into the exhaust manifold which as a M18x1.5 thread on the SAS bolt side.
I documented the other side of the bung somewhere in the P80mforum , too.
Will,ressearch 3517096 3517097 after we celebrate the hit we put out on the Son.

Installed a new after-market wastegate, and re-flashed the ECU with a new tune.
Car positively came alive ! Pulled about 18 -19lbs of boost, but I think the tuner might want to dial that back a tad. I'll see what the numbers show, but I think I'm done with under hood improvements.
Looks like it's finally time for the dash removal and repair. Then on to another project.
