i was wondering,when im going to turbo my car people sed i can get the oil to supply my turbo from a blank spot right near the oil filter,well i was also told that my oil pressure auge would be using the same spot.could i just get like a 3 way splitter? or something along those lines to supply oil to my tubo and still give me accurate readings? thanks for the help...

 

I believe you can get an oil take off fitting.

TunerToys.com has them for like 20 bucks

 

i wil check with them, i auctually bought my u bends and such from them to make my charge ic pipes.so does it just thread into the block with like too nipples or something along those lines?

 

Yeah just screw in the fitting, and boom you should be set.

 

ok checked out tuner toys and they only have a single and a double port.the only problem is.one end goes into the block,the other end is for the factory sensor,and the other leaves only the one plave for either a gauge or oil feed not 2.i was wondering,would it be possible or a good idea for the matter to buy this fitting and then buy another kind of splitter to come off the fitting?any suggestions would be great

 

They also have a firewall kit, in which you can tee off of that.

 

Ok, I'm prepared for the flaming, but I honestly think the ONLY way you should feed oil to the turbo is through a sandwich plate that goes between your block and your oil filter. This way you are feeding your turbo nice FILTERED oil, and you don't risk stripping/cracking the fitting on the back of your block. I read the stories, didn't think it could happen to me, then BAM! cracked mine. Now I run the GE adapter.

 

IMO a firewall kit is the way to go...



That way you can have it all right there on your firewall and if you have a problem it's easy to work with...

When I first installed my turbo I had a small leak in one of my fittings and it was super easy to fix because the oil feed was right there... Then again, I hate doing anything on the back of the block, it's such a pain to get to...

Anyways, there are other options but this is just the one that I prefer...

A sandwich kit would be my other favorite option, but then again, I hate having fittings on the back of the block...

 

oil sandwich hands down...i have one and i love it...the back of the block is weak i dont wana **** around near it.

 

its all about the vtec oil pressure sensor. Use a T fitting from there and you are good to go. Easy to work with and you get good oil pressure.

 

pm stan, he has everything your looking for when it comes to fittings

Are you talking about tapping for oil from the head? Not a good idea...
