hi all, i've got an a3 and buyinng an intercooler soon but i need a quick tap for the n75 i've seen a couple from america but with delivery it seems quite a steep in price.

Was thinking of an air line connection or alike but using this means i dont think i can secure it properly on the iside of the pipe it will just be pushed in rather than a washer and a nut holding it on the the back. Or using jb weld?
what solutuon are you guys and girls using ?
approx price and retailer.

Cheers mark.
 
Thought i'd add a pic of the quick tap solution

Im buying my intercooler next weekend and fitting hopefully.

what is this about a n75 quick tap?

Is there further modifications that need to be done?
 
If you are buying the ebay cooler kit which i may buy soon then yeah further mods are needed there is no where for the n75 hose to go, so it needs a quick tap or a connector drilled into the metal charge pipe and either welded or instant jb weld used to seal it.

also i've read that the dv doesnt sit right on the pipe they give you so a further dv cold side kit is needed but i need this confirming by someone though.

can anyone give us some help here?
