96594, little turbo odds and ends questions
Posted by pzp107, Aug-03-06 08:35 AM
I searched and searched for days now on various topics. I really would like a few questiosn answered. Does anyone have a set of HRC instructions they could email or mail me? Does anyone have a turbo oil drain instruction page; as far as what parts to use for a an fiiting one and where to weld the drain bug on the oil pan? I also cant find a clear oil feed line kit instruction page. I was wondering where to get the hose from and weather it mattered if it was for a certain temperature of whatever. I know it should be 4an, but how long? Also what are the t fittings sizes. I plan on using the stock sensor still connected, use a braided line for the feed, and also have an extra hole for an oil pressure sensor for a guage. I would also really like to see if I can duplicate the hahn front mount intercooler piping for a 20g turbo as I think their price is rather high. If you know how to or if someone has an extra set let me know to. Please answer my questions kindly without any mockery. I really searched for days on this stuff and only found a small section on the oil feed line in gsgoinfast section.

So your read his write up or read some posts by him?

If you just read some posts, here is the link to his write up on this site:

If you go down the page halfway, it should have step 4 oil lines.

He puts down everything you need to run your oil feed and return lines.

All you need for the oil return is a tap in the oil pan, somewhere toward the top, with and a rubber oil rated hose to run from the bottom of the turbo to the oil pan. 12-18 inches of tube should be more than enough. Just tighten it all down with hose clamps.

You'll have to put a tee in the back of the block at the sending unti for the oil feed. I would ditch the stock sensor if I were you. It's way too much clutter back there. Just put the tee in and use the extra port in the tee for your oil pressure gauge. Buy about 3 foot of bradied line and run it from the tee to the in-feed on the turbo. It's really not very complicated.
