3" couplers should clamp fine to the turbo, but if you are using rubber PVC couplers you may need to use 2 3/4"

im trying to piece together a good leak tester for the D55, but having a ton of problems. Like you mentioned, the 4" pvc coupler is WAY too big for the 4" inlet on my turbo, plus even when i got it tightened, the set screw holes (4 of them) around the lip of the cover tend to push air out even with the coupler tightened.

So I will get a 4 to 3" silicone coupler, hopefully it will seal up ok, but then ideally I want a puck (1" thick, 3" around) of aluminum or steel that is tapped in the middle to screw in a compressor fitting or pipe thread, so i can run some piping elbows to a compressor fitting. I will tighten the coupler to this with a good tbolt clamp.

Got anything like this?
