I think you can just search "Rob Beck Pressure Tester" on 3si and the thread with the contact info will just pop up.
Or if you want to spend extra money, do it the easy "get it now way" you can just go to 3SX.com and order the one that they have. It's the same one, just with an extra 30 bucks tacked on to it.

If you are talking about the circular CPVC cap with a hole drilled in it for the nipple/valve, those usually leak around the splitter because of the oval shape. I have one to leak test my single set up, but the Rob Beck tester is about one hundred and fifty billion-kajillion times better then the CPVC cap for the stock set up.

I was actually talking about much simple setup. but requires removing that air intake splitter.

I made one and it works well, but I think Beck's would be better. Removing the bubble is one more (small) hassle in the way of pressure testing.
If I had the Beck-style and could just pull the filter and slap on the tester, I'd be that more inclined to pressure test on a whim.
Yeah, it's not that big of a deal. But since I'm already lazy about pressure testing, making it 5 or 10 minutes quicker/easier would be a plus.
