Hi, I am new to the whole turbo thing and i have a couple of questions. The turbo kit i got from a guy is brand new. He claims everything is there but i am positive that it is not. There is one oil feed line but no flange. That doesent puzzle me, what does puzzle me is the oil return setup. There is a huge rubber hose, about an inch and a half around, is this supposed to be my oil return hose, or is the oil return hose supposed to be the same size and material as the oil feed line? Sorry if this might be a little confusing, by the way this kit is going on a d16z6

1.5"? Wtf?

I'm using a -10AN return line.

 

Maybe it is meant to be the oil feed line, i have no idea.

 

Post up some pictures of what you have and we should be able to help you more.

 

Alright man heres some pics, the blue hose is the one im talkin bout. [IMG][/IMG]

 

Oh, word. Yeah you can use that blue hose as a return, I don't think its 1.5" though.

Its flipped 180 degrees though, you'll need to rotate the center section on the turbo before you install it.

 

Thanks for the advice, youve been a big help, one last thing is, do you know where i can get the adapter(i think this is what its called) to connect the oil feed line to the mid section of the turbo, this kit did not come with one.

 

Depending on whether the feed line is -3AN or -4AN, one of these fittings should work. They thread right into the center section of the turbo.

Is it possible that the oil return flange is just mounted on the inlet? Seems weird that the CHRA would be clocked 180* off. Actually, I guess it would be weird either way

And LOL at 1.5". You suck at approximations.

 

This might help you
