Gilles,

Thanks. You are correct, I cut off the thin 'crimped portion' of the fitting using a rotary tool with a flat disc carefully. The black tubes came out and sure enough there was an o-ring inside. Took the o-ring out as I won't be needing it.

I realized that both the fittings on the rack side are made of Brass! So I have to now get 2 6AN Male to 1/4 NPT Male 90 degree fittings in Brass (Google CTX-B). I plan to cutoff the NPT side and have the fitting welded to the fittings from the Boxster. Have to find someone that can TIG weld Brass. The pressure side is going to take pressures of 1000+ psi so I am not going to try and weld it myself... Also I don't have a TIG gun and don't know how to TIG weld yet..

Will attach pics once I am done.

Thanks for your help! Cheers.
