Okay guys, I have come to the annoying part of my turbo build.....getting little parts.

Anyways, I have the oil return of -10.......But what size fitting is on the back of the sending unit and what size braided line do I need for the oil feed line.

thanks, JAson

 

-4

 

4an u can go with 6an it u want big fitting's

 

Yeah, put a bigger one on there so it takes longer for the pressure to build up so the turbo won't get oil fast enough - that way it will die a premature death

Every big import racer run #6 line and if u did not know the oil stay in the line when the car is off only time u got to bled the line is when u change the oil if it is a number 4 or 6.

People used big oil line to cut back on the pressure to the turbo.

Turbo's don't need but a Max of 80psi of oil pressure that's why u see when turbo's on Hondas they don't last as long as Volvo's, Saab's and other cars that come with turbo stock because u trying to put over 100psi of oil in it lot of guy run an oil reducer inline to cut back on the pressure.

 

What size is the line that comes with the Drag III kit??? It is smaller than -4.

 

it is #4an with the drag 3

 

So are we saying for my app of around 500 whp...with a 60-1...go with a -4?

thanks-J

 

a -4an will work just fine thats what like all turbo kits come with

 

will length of the line help reduce oil pressure?

 

no just take more oil to fill it
