1/8"th good enough to get oil to turbo?
sup guys,
my turbo is a garrett turbo and the oil feed is made for a 1/4"th male piece. but my oil line kit came with a steel line with 1/8"th female ends,and a 1/8"th elbo. so i went and got a 1/4"th-1/8"th reducer and im running the 1/8"th elbo on it. will i be fine running the 1/8"th elbo like the kit came with,or is it to small to get enough oil to the turbo?

Almost everyone has an 1/8 NPT fitting somewhere in the feed line. You will probably even need a restrictor.

Yes, it the same as any other turbo in the world. Like I said, you may even need a restrictor. Lots of people run -3 AN lines which are much smaller than any 1/8 NPT fitting.
