Emergency: Oil fitting 16G

[madmader]

I installed my 16G yesterday, and I don't have the right fitting for the oil feed line that threads into the top of the turbo.

Don't ask why but the guy I bought my 1G from installed a t25 on it. So that means the
t25 's oil feed fitting was on there, and the 1G fitting is gone.

I need to make my own, but i don't know what thread goes into the top of the turbo, please help.

I will conntunie to search the forums, but it is a emergency to have this together within a couple hours.
thanks

If you have a TD05 housing the size is 12 X 1.25. For reference the TD06 housing is 12 x 1.5.

Hope that helps,

It is a TD05
Ok great, now what type of fitting goes in there? same kind as the flared t25 fitting, or is it a bango bolt?

It's a banjo bolt.

I know this is an old thread but I had the same problem. Instead of using a banjo bolt, I used one of these:

Earl's Performance AN to Metric Adapter Fittings: EAR-9919BFFERL - summitracing.com

And it worked flawlessly.
