EP3 LEAK coming from oil feed line to turbo
just got the turbo in on my EP3
, its on the 12ohm 440 cc rev hard tubro basemap k-pro now, and everything is ok accept there is alot of oil leaking from the oil feel line and the turbo. it is screwed on there pretty tight with teflon tape, but it still leaks. i put some gasket sealent on there and im gonna see wat it looks like in the morning. i am also running an open downpipe till it gets welded, and the only error is that there is not activity detected in the a/f ratio sensor #1.

You better fix that leak before it causes a fire. If all the fittings are tight, you might have a faulty line. Did you check the fitting on the turbo housing?
where on the line is it leaking from? I had a similar prob, I accidentally mis-threaded the line on the brass fitting(90 degree inlet on the turbo) and it started leaking out of the back of the connector on the line.
