Default how to attach my oil feed line?K26 turbo

My K26 turbo has the oil feed hole with two threaded holes on each side, so it looks like I need some adapter to attach a fitting to it?I saw that some turbos were hook up without adapter flange..Do I need flange for my turbo??

Here's a pic..

The one you just showed him is for the return line. He needs to purchase a similar flange but with a smaller hole for the oil feed fitting.

WRONG, not all turbos are the same. you might need a fitting, but that may be the return port, what does the other side look like??? if tha is the inlet then you will need a fitting like^^^ but it has a smaller hole in it.

This is 1000% feed side of the turbo, return side is the same, only a bigger hole..
This hole is no threaded on the picture above..How to hook feed line into this no threaded hole?

Wrong. That kit does not include what he needs. He does need a flange for the inlet. Most turbos come with the oil inlet already threaded. Some do not and require you to purchase a flange so you can screw the fitting on. Jure posted the picture of his turbo and that is the inlet that he showed. Jure's turbo requires that flange.

The flange MattB showed you is the correct flange. You can also purchase the flange that has a threaded hole and you add the fitting. Both work. Good luck.

My Bad i didn't see that oil feed line hole on his turbo wasn't threaded for a 1/8 npt fitting . So i guess u need that flange with the an fitting on it or tap the turbo . But most turbos come with that oil feed line hole threaded already right ?
