How to build a boost pressure tester

Hi guys,

I've searched and searched but can't find a thread for what to use/buy to cap off the intercooler->turbo hoses in the UK. I've bought 3 different types of caps, all of which don't fit.

Does anyone have a link or shop/item I can buy to use in the UK? Would make a great tutorial for the knowledge base

Todd

Not sure what’s available in the UK, but here is one you can buy: https://www.markskituning.com/produc...t-leak-tester/

you can also find these types of things for VW and Audi I believe, with a google search.
