Wrong oil lines? Clocking help please!
Alright I know this is probably a newb question, but i need some help. I searched and really didnt find what im looking for.
I got stealthmode oil lines for a t3/t4 which apparently they are not for a t3/t4 because they dont fit on my turbo.
I IM, Emailed 2x's, called and left messages with Stealthmode and no response, so im turning to you guys.
The oil return flange I got for my turbo is wrong. The shape is fine, but the bolts are incorrect. They sent m8x1.25 bolts which the holes in the turbo are m10's (any one know the pitch? Its not 1.25 nor 1.5). So I need new bolts and to drill the holes out then.
Now for the feed, do I need a flange? Because the fitting on the stealthmode lines to go into where the orange plug is is wrong. Its too small.
Lastly, apparently my drain is on the top and my feed is on the bottome...right? And I need the outlet of the turbo to point down. Which bolts do i need to take out and turn to get it like that?

Re: (HCRX311)
i probably have one of those new t3/t4 turbos where the oil feed fitting is 1/4", not 1/8" and the drain bolts are a little bit bigger also, you will need bigger bolts for the drain flange, and drill out the flange for the bigger sized bolts to fit through it. and as for the oil feed, you will need a 1/8" to a 1/4" adapter, which can be found at any hardware store.

Re: (swappedcx)
yeah, you just need to loosen the bolts, don't take them completely out. and as for the threads, i'm not sure. i just took the flange with me into the store and test fitted it

Re: (itsJDMyo)
wait i need a flange for the feed? There are bolts and a machined surface so it could accept a flange, but then the hole is threaded as well so you dont need a flange it looks.
I can just get that adapter and hook everthing straight into the hole and not need a flane right?

ur feed line would be on the top and return on the bottom cuz its gravity return so the return line cant go up or be flat for to far cuz the oil will pool and u'll end up burnin up ur turbo

Hey, when you find an oil line that works let know. I gave the same flange fitting as well on my turbo but the flanges and everything are completely wrong from TunerToys

Sorry about my reaction time. I haven't checked my email in a couple days because I'm out on the west coast until Thursday. I haven't received any pm's as of yet.
You have the T3 center section that uses the 1/4 oil inlet instead of the standard 1/8. It also uses a larger diameter drain flange bolt. Although my trusty webmaster isn't a spelling bee champion, this kit is listed on my site here:
http://stealthmodeperformance.com/oil-kit.shtml
You will need a 1/8 female to 1/4 male adaptor fitting, which in a rush can be found in the plumbing section of home depot. You'll also need (2) 3/8-16 bolts an inch and a half long with lock washers. Those can also be found at home depot in the hardware section. I'd be happy to send you these parts if you can wait until Thursday. Otherwise I could reemburse you for the home depot parts. I believe they total just under $3.
PM me here, and I'll check to make sure there isn't a pop up blocker that is blocking my PMs. -Steve

Hey, not to threadjack, just asking more on a question he already asked.
Clocking the turbo. I loosened my exhaust housing bolts but if I rotake the outlet to face down the oil feed is in the wrong place. what is the other set of bolts to loosen?
