Oil Feed
 

I have a Talon turbo TD05H and i'm not sure how the oil feed should be... is it a banjo fitting? direct feed? what size is the thread?

Re:Oil Feed
 

I remember someone saying that the T25 was 7/16", but I dunno about that one. Autozone can match it up for you. They have a collection of different sizes to test fit your application so you can get the correct size.

Are you using a SS braided line with AN fittings? If so, they make tons of adapters.

Most all DSMS use banjo bolt's for the oil feed.

Re:Oil Feed
 

T25's are threaded right into the turbo then attached to a hardline.

*cough* i duno.. i might pick up a tdo5h tomorrow.

i duno yet. jeff hows this turbo on a d series.

Re:Oil Feed
 

Stupid banjo fittings !! They flow like crap, I wonder why Mistu desided to use them ?? They use them on our fuel lines too !! For every kick ass think mistu. does I think they match it with something stupid ( like putting lawmower turbos on my TT supercar !! ).

Re:Oil Feed
 

does it have to stay this way, or can i convert it to a non-banjo fitting?

Re:Oil Feed
 

I have a TD04 and proceding to install in the following week... but what is Banjo connection ?

Thanks

Re:Oil Feed
 

Their is nothing wrong with banjo fittings at all, You can also use a flared fitting for the T-25, I just used a steal brake line, then reflared it... worked perfect.

Re:Oil Feed
 

Think about it. Banjo fittings are smart because you can use the stock 'oil bolt'. This will keep you from pushing too much oil into your turbo right? I dunno about the T-25's, but my IHI oil supply bolt has a really small inlet for oil.

Re:Oil Feed
 

how much is a Banjo fitting with the stock line. i just want to see how much they are too steal brad with the fittings.

Re:Oil Feed
 

This is a little of the subject.. but are u talkin about the banjo bolt for your oil line as in the same one as the fuel line/filter? Well, my banjo bolt for my fuel filter snaped in half.. it was one weak pos. Dunno if i would trust it for oil if it was the same thing.

Re:Oil Feed
 

My TDO5H has the banjo bolts stock. I, however, got the Sunpro gauge adapter kit for my BSP to NPT fitting for the oil feed behind the block. Use a "close" to 7/16" to NPT to fit in the oil inlet for my turbo. Fits likea glove. It's not coming out at all. Plus, seems to have a nice sized hole for the oil to pass. Same as the BSP to NPT fitting. So, I'm sure it doesn't need to be bigger or smaller.

Not the best picture, but you can see the fitting. This goes to my NPT to -4AN adapter, then the -4AN connects to my swivel on my stainless steel braided hose.

Hehe.. When I first came to the site, and went to get my adapter plate made, I took them this picture and told them, it better not do this!! ;D ;D ;D

Re:Oil Feed
 

i cant believe the thread on the 14b is a BSPT thread.. cant be.

Re:Oil Feed
 

are you sure its bsp thread? I have always used the stock banjo bolts... Never did a nice trick fitting to -an.

That plate is not mine, some guy sent that to me.. Showing me how aluminum adapter plates work with shitty EGT's :o

Jeff

Re:Oil Feed
 

Oh. Heheh.. That plate scares me. Makes me respect the power. ;D

Re:Oil Feed

Re:Oil Feed
 

that plate blew out b/c it was made of some weak ass aluminum, alum has a really low mp compaired to steel, yours better be steel b/c even a thick aluminum adaptor plate will blow out from melting.
