I have a t3/t04e from a Drag kit, and I will be upgrading the return line to a braided line per everyones recommendation. I have (bear with me here) the braided line, a red/blue swivel fitting on each end like the one pictured in Stans kit here:


..as well as the "flare to pipe" 1st one on the left in this picture:


Will that flare fitting bolt right on to the t3/t04e or will I need something else like an adapter? I also have the fitting in the oil pan obviously. Do I have everything I need?

 

you need an oil retun flange, then everything will bolt up.

 

Where can I get that?

I was under the impression that I could possibly use the flange on the turbo in the kit, is that not a possibility? The turbo should be here by the end of the week, so I dont have it in front of me to check unfortunately.

 

Yeah you should be able to use that flange. Im not completly sure what comes in the kit but It should work.

 

Awesome. So the male/male fitting that I have that screws into the end of the swivel fitting on the turbo side of the braided line should screw right into the flange as it comes from Drag? (Just clarifying)

 

If i understood yiou correctly yes.

 

Here are some pictures of exactly what I have:


The blue fitting is a russell fitting, the box says "Adapter #10 Flare x 1/2"NPT"

Now that I posted pictures, do you still think I have everything I need, and I do not need a different flange for the turbo or anything else?

 

You just need a drain flange nick..

I don't remember the part number, but what I did was instead of have the Adaptor #10 flare x 1/2 npt, and the 90 Deg -10 an fitting I found a 45 deg swivel fitting with I believe a 1/2 npt male. It screwed directly to the turbo flange, and allowed me to make the return line run down hill much better.

I'll see if I can find a pic.

EDIT: Guess I was wrong. I used some sort of 90 deg swivel fitting, and attached the 45 deg fitting to that. Man I wish I saved the parts numbers!!!

Don't forget the 2) 8mmx1.25x25 bolts and oil drain gasket...

 

I got a billet flange from http://www.majesticturbo.com/

They have gaskets and bolts too.

 

You need an oil drain flange:
