turbocharged oil temp?
i need to know how hot the oil gets in a honda. the car will be turbocharged. i just need an estimate b/c the stainless steel hose i was going to get was rated at like 180 F. i know the psi will be good at 120max psi. also do you guys know of any places to get oil feed and return line kits?
don't know about turbo, but my B18A powered EG hatch sees 300+ degree oil temp when road racing. and that is with an oil cooler.
I am working on trying to get a bigger cooler combo, but in any event I would expect the turbo cars to run even hotter, seeing as how the oil circulates thru the turbo...
180 degrees rating sounds way too low. you want safety factor, too, so I would look for a rating of at least 400 to 500 degrees.
good luck.
