Default >>>oil adaptor for oil gauge & oil line (turbo)



^^i found this on ebay, i just thought it would be a good thing to have for our turbo line and oil gauges(pressure or temp.) instead of poking holes on our oil pan-->like the turbonetics. check them out on ebay for more details! I already ordered one

you would still need to return the oil you got to the oil pan... that is not worth it, its so much easier to just tap into the oil sensor port than use the oil filter

I have one of them, Id only reccomend feeding the turbo at that location, not returning it...way to much pressure you'd mess up your turbo...

I run that exact adapter for my oil pressure gauge. Works like a charm. Oil temp probe wont fit, IMO oil temp isnt needed.

this setup is acutally better than tapping ur pressure line at the head. the oil filter is the first place that gets pressure whereas the head is the last....just more time ur turbo is without oil pressure during startup

Exactly, that way you also dont have to worry about any shavings from the head being tapped.

These blocks work awesome for oil pressure and oil feed for a turbo.

For oil return and oil temperature, your gonna have to tap your oil pan still.
