i have a t25 turbo from a saab and it has two feeds and two returns one for water one for oil. however one feed is bigger than the other and attached using a banjo bolt fitting and the other is a different fitting but thinner tube?
i am wondering which is more likely to be the oil feed and which the water feed? i dont have much experience with turbos so any help would be great
thanks

im almost 100% that the bigger fitting with the banjo is the oil feed line.........

Dunno if T25's on Saab's are different, but on a Mitsubishi T25, the banjo fittings (2 identically sized) are for water. A smaller line with a AN type of fitting is the oil feed line, with the oil drain consisting of a flanged drain hole with 2 bolts attaching the drain line to the turbo housing. This may be completely different on a Saab though...

can anyone verify this for me?

i have my turbo mounted to my manifold and the hole that has 2 bolts with a hole in the middle is facing straight down and would be perfect if it is the oil drain and not the feed........ please let me know!

That is MOST DEFINITELY the turbo drain. Seriously though, it is I promise. Do you have the bolts to go with it? Should be either 10 or 12 mm, can't remember which. The drain hole itself is about a half inch across.

Drain hole is about 1/2" accross, the coolant lines are threaded hole about 14mm wide. Look at it like this, find the smallest threaded hole out of the 4 holes, that one is the feed line, right directly on the opposite is the return/drain hole.

Then the two identical size holes on the 3 and 9 o'clock of the feed and drain are the coolant lines.
