I have heard some rumors that a 90 degree fitting off the turbo is a no-no for the drain line. However, this is pretty much the only way I'm going to be able to have my line correctly with a downward slope.

Opinions?

Thanks,

I have heard its bad, but then again it all depends on how its placed, any pics? any other opinions?

 

What would happen if you use a 45 degree angle? It would be a shame to hurt that sweet turbo you have with bad drainage. What would happen if you put the fitting in a different location on the pan?

 

i have a 90 degree off the turbo to my pan...
no problems what so ever
check intake and exhaust piping, no oil leaks
been over 5 k miles now

 

The 45 degree is still not angled enough...I have a 45 degree fitting already and the outlet of it ends up being lower than the lowest point on the pan fitting...

Heres a rough pic...



I don't really want to move the fitting because I already taped the pan...and even if I did move it (sideways only, not up or down) I would still need the 90 degree for the angles to be correct.

Thanks guys!

I used a 90 degree fitting off of my turbo with no problems.

Anyone else?

yeah.. 90 here too.
spools great!

 

It looks to me from here that you can get away with a 45 degree fitting, and it will fit just right without kinking. Thats what i have, looks similiar.
