Going from rotated turbo back to stock placement, Coolant lines?

mrkt321 · 08-02-2009, 04:50 PM

My car currently has an element gt65 rotated kit on it. I am downsizing in turbos to a 68hta stock placement turbo. The gt65 has a stainless steel oil line on top like this:

and a line out on the bottom like this:

Will that oil in line work in the new turbo? What other coolant lines do I need to look for? Could anyone send me some detailed pictures of the turbo coolant lines? Any other tips in general with the swap would be helpful as well.

The oil feed line should work as long as you get the proper turbo fitting. It may be an adapter -4an to ??? or a banjo bolt and fitting. FP should be able to tell you what you need.

I don't know about the rest though.

Ok I was alarmed when I looked back at things and saw that it wasn't a banjo bolt. thanks
