Default yet more turbo kit questions...

ALright, so i have the stealthmode oil line kit. However, it doesnt come with the flange for the oil feed on the turbo. What do people use for this? It must have to be the same thread size as the oil feed line, but I have no idea where to get it.

also, where can i get a flange to use on the oil pan? or did you guys just thread the copper barb fitting directly into the oil pan?

sorry, let me specify:

the oil feed inlet on the turbo is threaded, but neither ends of the oil feed line are the right size. Has anyone else run into this?

for what turbo? and for the drain fitting for the oil pan, all I did was bring the -10 line to a parts shop and looked for a metal fittng that would fit and welded it onto my pan. You can do this or just jb weld the the brass fitting onto pan. This will work fine also,

its for a T3 from a Saab. That is pretty much what i figured i'd have to do with the drain. But WHat about the oil feed line? did i just get the wrong size or what?

the little 45° male/male fitting screws in to one end of the feel line and in to the feed hole in the turbo.

naahhh....they will have it. have you checked out tunertoys in the clssifides? also PM stealth and see what he says about it. He may have a connection up his sleeve somewhwere. although, i think tunertoys is handling everything for stealth, so contact tunertoys.

i hope i was a help.
