yup...the brass fitting will go in the pace of ur oil pressure sensor which will be connected to ur oil feed in...the black thing will be bolted and welded onto ur oil pan for oil going out of turbo.

That's real nice. Does the drag kit come with good oil supply and return stuff?

are you sure the black piece goes to the pan? because the black part looks like its supposed to go to the turbo w/ the gasket and the brass piece is supposed to screw on to the pan. not sure but anyone care to verify this?

According to their site, the black piece is supposed to go to the turbo.

Look at the main page http://www.turbo-performance.com/Pro...l-linekits.htm and compare the parts that are separated from the complete kit.

I just finished installing this kit and have a few words of advice.

Touching the end of bare SS wire, especially under the finger nail hurts like a Bi*ch!

Second:
This kit was nice but we probably spent at least another $20.00 on other ****. I could have put one together for the same price or cheaper with all the correct parts and a better drain setup if he (my brother) would've asked me first.

Stuff we still needed:
90degree fitting for oil pan
male, male coupler for oil pan to extend fitting out to clear block
another SSbraided line for the oil pressure guage

this setup is meant so you plug the T directly into the block -- a BAD idea, it puts too much leverage on the fitting into the block and *could* break. We had the electric oil pressure sender on the T too so it weighed a good 2lbs, we weren't even gona chance it, immediatly ordered another SS line for 1/4 the price of the entire kit. We also didn't use their T, we used a female, female, female T instead of 2 female and 1 male connectors on the T. I don't remember if the kit came with it but you'll ALSO need the NPT fittings for the oil line.

Anyway, needless to say I was pissed when i found out he spent $75 on such an incomplete kit. Luckily we had an extra SS line from a vtec head (ls/vtec) sitting in our basement. We did order another to replace it however.

I would be more than happy to furnish a "kit", parts we used that is complete. Overall this setup probably ended up costing $120. ($30 for another SS line and then $20 or less for the 90 degree -10 and the coupler and other sh*t)
