This is the banjo style oil line that came with my turbo.. i can't tell what size it is...

so is this size good enough for my turbo and won't over PSI the oil pressure?? is it -3an or -4an?? can you tell??

I was thinking of this, run a -3an oil feed but with a -12 or -14an oil drain so for sure it'll drain faster.. what you guys think?

run a -3 line and get the new banjo fitting for the end of it.. -10 drain should be fine as long as its setup right.

i still need a banjo fitting? i can't just use the -3an line and get an adapter and go right into the turbo?

a banjo bolt is the only thing that will fit into your turbo. You can get banjo fittings at www.amstreetrod.com I think. You could probably just slide the hose up the hard line a few inches and put two or three clamps on it.

DSM turbos suck for a reason..

it's not a dsm turbo though... it's a subaru turbo!!

anyhow, i got a banjo bolt that goes with the oil line thing, but i'm getting those stainless steel braided -an oil lines.. i can't just slide it on the oil fitting thing!

do i have to use the banjo bolt, i know what it is and how it operates... but can't i get a fitting that threads into the oil hole on my turbo, like the same threading and pitch etc as my banjo bolt? that way i can hook up the oil line directly to the turbo without using that stupid banjo pipe thingy in my pic..

i just showed the pic to ask if that was a -3an or -4an, so i could decide.. since STOCK it came with that, i figured if i followed their oil line diameter, i wouldn't need a oil restrictor or needle valve.. am i correct?

also just in case, i'm running a -14an oil return to make sure oil won't backup in the turbo.. so is all this ok?

As far as I know the threads on a banjo bolt don't match up with normal fittings.. I might be wrong though.

Re:pics of my oil line, which one do i use? -3an, -4an?
 

so there is no "-an to banjo" fitting? like i know there are "-an to NPT" fitting right?

Re:pics of my oil line, which one do i use? -3an, -4an?
 

Correct. The banjo is what goes in the hole.. you would need a banjo fitting with an an on the end instead of a barb.. you can buy the banjo hose end. I'm not sure why you don't want to do that.

Also no one can tell what size you line is from the picture. Measure it.. -3 is about 3/16" -4 is about 1/4"
