im sorry to have to waste a full new post on this, but for my air setup on my accord im gona need 2 "T"'s to run my 1/4 line to my gauges... now, i cant seem to find anyone that sells a "t" with 2 1/2 (PTC) ports and one 1/4 port (PTC) ... ive seen ones with 2 3/8 ports and the one 1/4 but not one with 1/2" does anyone know where i can get a "t" like this? thanks guys. (and i "searched" this, but i dont think the search option was working today)

buy a 3 sided T... put in a reducer. wa-la.

i think parker makes a 1/2" to 1/4" cuppler.

buy a 3 way 1/2" and slip the 1/4" into one side.

Do you already have some type of brass T used on your valve assemblies? If so you could possibly drill and tap those for a 1/4" or 1/8" male fitting to screw right into. Less fittings used and all, but only convenient if you or a friend has access to 1/8" or 1/4" NPT pipe tap.

damn... thats a good idea that i never even thought of.. i have a whole tap and dye set right at home too... i'll probably go with that setup.. thanks bro for the idea!

No problem, here's an example of how I did them for a friend..



pretty much the same way mine are too, I just used straights instead. 1/8" works perfect, and depending on how your brass Ts are, 1/4" would more than likely work.
