guage is the cheapest by far. they also offer easy street's fittings for a lot less than easy street. its all drop shipped from easy street as well.

awesome!

i still dont know whats needed to finish off the manifold? meaning what size fittings i need that are built in the manifold.. is it 3/8th?

also does it come with slow downs? hah kinda dislike how easy street doesnt list the specs

Kohinoor

3/8" male thread for the fills, tube size is whatever you want to use.
1/4" male thread for the dumps

what do you mean by "slow downs"? adjustable fittings?

vwynn

iTrader: (4)

yes adjustable fittings.. does the manifold have built in threads for that or do i have to run T's?

is it necessary to use that brand for the valve manifold? I would suggest getting one that can distribute to all 4 corners unless you are going to put one manifold up front and leave one in the trunk.

i can point you in the right direction for the accuair manifold which seems to be a favorite of people around here, they also have a full plug and play kit for autoleveling and stuff like that.

and the ksport bag/strut is definitely 1/8 fittings.

the 380's are definitely 1/4 fittings, the ksport tank is 1/4 fittings.

let me know if you need anything else, i just redid mine so everything is fresh.

vwynn

here is the fitting that goes in my ksport bag...now what size are they?

dial caliper says .362"

1/4th or 1/8th??

Thanks!

awesome info! i was thinking about accuair but the price for the whole setup is quite expensive :/ plus i gotta get a digi gauge on top of that lol but who knows maybe i might change my mind. how fast are those accuair manifolds on 3/8th lines anyways?

compare it to the 1/4" npt fitting on the 380c

no more questioning the 1/8 size......

shoot me a PM on the other part!

vwynn

oh yea forgot to mention. since its the same brand as the controller n all.. its all plug n play vs Cut n solder (which aint hard but pnp is convenient)

we'll see where i go with this.


Edit added:

Also is there a difference between different brand fittings like UAS vs Easystreet?
UAS looks like its brass and easystreet is nickle plated?

It's just different material but it's the same PTC fitting company, Alkon. I prefer brass since all my nipples, street T's, cross, valves, are all brass.

Kohinoor

iTrader: (22)

brass is too soft IMO. i like nickel plated.

definitely go with the easy street manifolds with their digital kit. it will make your life sooo easy.

Kohinoor: you positive the dumps are 1/4th fittings on the easystreet mani? i read in the VWvortex forum that they are 1/8th. can someone confirm?
