Help With Oil Supply Line for a T3
Just bought a turbo from westcoastturbo and the turbos supply line is just a hole. It doesn't have any threads to put a fitting in there. It kinda looks like the return side with the 2 spots for the screws and a flange but but instead of the big square for the return there is a small hole but no threading to put a fitting in. Any body else have this problem or ran into a similar problem that can help.
just found this flange on ebay... is this the flange i need for the oil supply?

Yes! You need a feed/return line kit for your setup. That should work. ATP, fast-turbo.com, and stealthmode.com also sell oil line kits.

if you decide to do this make sure you put grease on the tap to collect any metal shavings and try to do it upside down in a vise so anything the grease doesn't catch will hopefully fall out and not into the center section

Re: (brixity)
tapping it would in all honesty be the best way...
like they said slap some grease on the tap
if not you will need to get and oil line kit make sure that when u get the kit it comes with gaskets for that flange
