I did a quick search looking for how to get the last odds and ends of my turbo system.

The home depot coupler/2.5" radiator hose was a great find for my intercooler setup.

I've got the oil return handled with some fuel line hose.

I dont know what to do with the oil feed. Either pay $45 from ci motorsports or buy used for about the same price from a forum member.

What have some of you done to save money on your oil feeds?

I'm using a 420a engine and a 2g dsm t25 turbo with a high-mount log mani.

Thanks guys.

 

a 1/4 inch steel brake line fits perfect into the t-25 if 45.00 is to rich for you.

 

Haha. -4an should be fine. Could i get away with using a nitrous jet as a restrictor? I can get them for free.

 

3/8 injector fuel line with some hose barbs, and a restrictor or you can check out www.speedlinemotorsports.com they have some great prices on 3-an and 4-an lines.

 

Go to whatever equivalent of princess auto you have and get them to make you a hydraulic line.

 

There was a sticky at one time. I think Shortyz made it. just search around for it. It was in the FI forum.

Using brake-line is a good way if you are wanting to go really cheap. I would still go with a TunerToys block fitting for $20 shipped and then go with hard brake line

 

Found the sticky.

Thanks.

Search was being retarded and didn't give me squat.

I'm probably going to pay the 50 bucks for the ci motorsports feed kit. Making my own t and buying the line and fittings sepparate is going to cost just as much. Ci motorsports builds these to your specs as far as what turbo you're running so i wouldn't have to do anything but thread everything in. I'm still trying to figure out if it has a restrictor built in or not.

After reading, i'm definately water-cooling my turbo as well since i probably wont be able to put a turbo timer on the car any time soon.

 

Forget this CI business. Go with a --------------------------- or TunerToys.com.

Their kits are application specific and they support this site.

 

you dont need to hook up a coolant line oil will do just fine

 

Don't run the whole thing out of solid line. Your engine shakes as you drive and the turbo sways. Having it so solid could result in bad things happening. Run something flexible at some point to prevent the oil line getting damaged and your engine blowing up as a result.
