Noddle Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Hi, What size is the original metal turbo line ?, is it the same size as brake line ? Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softopz Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 ya its the same doesnt hurt to go a little bigger. But its sufficient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islanddozer Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I take it you mean oil feed line for the turbo. 6mm o.d but it has a flange for the supply bolt. Not a common fitting.Used for trans oil lines and power steering. I'm sure a machine shop could copy one. I will take a pic for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddle Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 Thank you all, I have the banjo bolt and fitting, I'm planing to use some brake line to make this (from my wrecked MR30), one end has the flare , the other end will be silvered soldered onto the banjo fitting. I got my Tee now, went to the local hose fitting place, they had all the bits in stock to make it Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islanddozer Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 you might want to reconfigure your line. yours looks like it might be stcking out on the turbo end. here is a pic of the original Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddle Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 you might want to reconfigure your line. yours looks like it might be stcking out on the turbo end. here is a pic of the original Thanks for that, If you look at these pictures, the turbo sits out a little further (1/2 inch spacer used), and I didn't want to try to bend the metal line to sharply (It was all bent by hand, no tool used except for the leg on the trampoline) also if you are wondering about the sump, it for my 240K, not 'Z', see pic.
