Well I think I might have a problem, My car started smoking yesterday and I found oil in the charge pipe, so I think it is the turbo. Then I realized I forgot an oil pressure regulator for it. I checked and with 60psi at idle, I think I blew the seals. What pressure should it be at?

I have a Garret T25 with a direct feed oil hook-up (no banjo bolts).

banjo bolts ******* suck. can't get any replacements!! GRRR. If it weren't for those damn bolts, my setup would be done.

 

I think for the oil feed you can use either a 1/8 or 1/4 compression thread, just maker er real tight! and use thread sealer. Thats what I have. For the water lines I will be trying either 1/4 or 3/8 pipe thread with a similar dose torque and sealant.

On my old dsm t25 I never used banjo bolts, just a compression fitting like autocratic said.
