Was your oil feed line not long enough?

no we couldn't find a 45 degree elbow that would go into the turbo so we used the stock oil line and connected it to a brake line for semi air brakes ..... then just screwed the fitting into the brake line then the oil line into that fitting ... works good no leaks ...

this took us about five hours total work.. mostly becouse the oil sending unit broke when taking it off and the threads just stayed in the block so it was a bitch to tap out... last night we were actually drunk and unplugged the vacuum line to the waste gate just to see what the turbo could hold... well we hit 12 psi i let off and it stopped making boost... sure enough blew a coupler right off ...lol.. at 6 psi we have had no trouble with them .. and yes this is a true hmt setup consisting of just spare ---- laying around ..and yes this is the turbo i bought for 60 bucks .. total our buddy spent around 400 buying stuff from us .... the couplers are from lowes and the ic piping is fence post ...HMT MIDWEST STYLE
