Oil Feed line to Turbo
Today I got my turbo installed and was running my -3 oil feed line.
My question is can I use a Brass 1/8 to -3 90 degree elbow fitting that screws into the turbo. Im worried that maybe the heat will cause an issue cause the fitting is made of brass rather then steel????

Re: Oil Feed line to Turbo
Brass will melt at about 1800F last time I looked, egt's from a HOT turbo motor will be under 1600F. The CHRA will never get above 400F, and the fitting never above 300F due to the oil, which should enter at 200-240F.
