ok set up is drag turbo kit w 3" down pipe and exhaust on a b18c in a 96 civic coupe. after the install i saw my car on the lift and noticed the oil return line looked restricted and was touching the exhaust pipe the part that bolts up to the pan anyway but the line is still really close. would that really get in the way of cooling off the turbo and would that burn the line off? what are some options to take care of that? diff pan and putting a hole somewhere else, rearrange the line? went to experienced installers

 

cooling maybe, burning a hole in it probably.

i had to kinda go around the corner on my drag kit. as long as you keep it sweeping down and no kinks you can get away with it.

 

I fyou check out alot of OEM turbo'd cars, they have fiberglass /metallic cloths that can be snapped on and off of lines/hoses/etc and I took one off of a line from a Jetta, and put it over my return line, but cut it in 1/2 so that I could have one piece at each point on the return line where it was close to the DP.
