DSM Oil Inlet Metric-NPT-BSPT-AN-Crap
Alright, I'm ready to install my turbo, BUT I have a problem, I have SS lines that have 1/8NPT connectors and the oil inlet on my DSM 14b turbo uses banjo bolts, a 12mm x1.25 banjo bolt on the turbo and a 10mm x 1.25 banjo bolt on the other end of the hard line from the turbo. Does anyone know where I can get a coupler to mate the 10mm x 1.25 banjo bolt to a 1/8NPT OR an adapter that has a male 12mm x 1.25 with a female 1/8NPT?? Yes I know that it's a Metric to National conversion and Yes I've checked my local Home Depot, Kragen, Autozone, other hardware stores, etc and can't find it! If anyone knows an online performance shop or something that sells them.. that'd be ssssssssssssuuuuuuuuuuuuuppppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeer rrrrrrrrrr!!
My last resort would be to chop off the connectors and try to clamp them down.. but I'd really rather not. Thanks!

I don't have any kind of answer to your questions, but don't chop the lines and clamp them. I don't think it would flow very well and would eventualy cause your turbo to fail. I'm not sure if that connector is made. You might have to get different lines.

Find the DSM banjo with a stub of pipe if you can't round one up with a push-lok end. Then, build a compression fitting onto the DSM pipe and adapt it to 1/8th or whatever. That's usually what comp fittings usually have.

This seals really well. Hopefully this helps out.

If you put the hose over the banjo connection isn't that going to block the oil holes?
