Bob's Automotive Engineering (BAE) turbo oil feed question
« on: June 18, 2008, 10:51:48 am »
i just got my turbo rebuilt for my bae kit. is anyone running one? i have a question about the oil feed line, am i supposed to run any sort of restrictor? also, what size line are you guys running? the kit was pulled from a wrecker and i don't have any of the lines.

thanks!

The line is 4an on my t3 kit.I used a 1/8npt to 1/4"flare on the filter housing and ran a braided stainless line i got in a t3 kit.If you have the stock fitting on the turbo that is the restricter
