    It's a number 9 o-ring you need and the ones included on the ghost compressions will definitely not work.

    I'd disagree.

    I was trying to use BP fittings with the Typhoon, and was having no end of leaking issues despite tightening down the clamps with some pliers (so hard I was afraid of cracking the accy). Swapped out the O-rings on the BP fittings with the O-rings included with the Ghost compressions, and leaking problems solved.

    Results are gonna vary from user to user. I had no leaks with using a normal oring, but after picking up a box of #9s at home dept, i can say there is a big difference in the sealing from using the correct oring (that being a #9).

    When using a #9, the oring seats and seals a significant time before the base of the hitting tightens to the T3. You get a lot better piece of mind to spend $2 and use the right oring
