sorry no answer for ya, but let me know when you get it - what manifold you using? I still need to get over to tally (isn't it?) and check out your ride.

I just installed a turbo on my 90 Integra last night, and with the way the down pipe will have to go, you will likely need more than a foot to get around the downpipe.

If no one knows for sure, I would just go out and measure it, assuming you know where the turbo is going to be placed approx and add on a few inches.

depending on the manifold and positioning I would not think you would need that much.

I have about a 6-7 inch return and maybe a 3 foot feed and I have a bit extra slack on the feed (I used a oil adapter btw).

for the most accurate lengths, I would use a piece of wire or string to mock up the lines and measure the pieces.

damnit kenny i told u... 3.5-4ft for oil feed (go 4ft if ur unsure... better to have it longer than too short)

and the oil drain... test fit the manifold, turbo, and dp up and then use the wire to measure if u want.

I offer a compelte oil feed and return line kit for your accord with any kind of turbo.

I can guarantee that our pricing is lower than what you can piece it out for and no trips to hardware stores back and forth. All kits comes COMPLETE with everything that you need.

The oil feed line kit,


The oil return line kit,


You do need to have a threaded oil drain flange for the oil return kit, most turbos comes with it, if not, I can supply you with an aluminum billet flange and gasket.



There will be 15% break if you get everything, $ 119 shipped.

If you already have some of the parts and just need a few pieces to compelte it, let me know as well, I will help you as much as I can.

here's what our customers says about us (me
