1.9 custom oil return line for T3
« on: March 29, 2009, 11:31:33 am »
I know this has been done by a few people.  I need help with sizes of fittings and where to get the correct parts.  Perhaps I could duplicate exactly what one of you have done.  Information appreciated.  Thanks.

I took the flange off the T3 and cut/welded it to my K-03 line.  

Some have said that due to the smaller diameter pipe from the K-03 that it would restrict oil flow and could cause the turbo to fill with oil causing the motor to run away... but I have had no problems in the last 20K KM.
