hey everyone, on my turbo setup my drainline goes around the dumptube because my dump goes straight down in the engine bay. anyhow i was curious how much this is going to affect the integrity of the line, if its not touching, its like a fingernail gap. should i just heat wrap it? and also do u think the drainline rubber insides is still good? the car has been running like this for over a year and as of yet had no problems i just dont wanna have to worry about something down the road , i tested the flow of the line it flows i dont know how fast its supposed to drain but its a constant small stream, anyhow i appreciate anyones opinion on this matter, thanks.

Are you talking about a downpipe or a dumptube from the wastegate? Anyways I presume you have a stainless steel oil return line so just make sure its at a constant slope like this \ . Don't let it hang down like a U either. Try to make it as least restrictive as possible.

 

i mean dumptube like i typed for the wastegate

 

i guess theres no problem with the drainline touchin the dump tube?

 

not too bad long as it wont melt from the exhaust.

 

just make sure you run steel braided line
