I started to swap out my 13b for a 14b last night while I was helicoiling the turbo manifold studs. And found out that the 13b is only oil cooled and the oil feed is too small.... great. Does anyone know what the size of the oil feed banjo bolt is? Think I might find it in a hardware store? Also where are the coolant lines supposed to come from that go to the 14b? I was just thinking I could put a tee on the lines that go to the throttle body and run them to the turbo. Would that work? Also what is the banjo bolt size for the coolant lines on the turbo? Thanks any help appreciated. I was expecting to be done last night since I thought it was a direct bolt in.
 
Yeah the 14b has a bigger banjo bolt then the 13b. The bigger bolt doesnt fit in the feed fitting so I know I will need that. I was thinking I could just pick up some banjo bolts from somewhere and use some steel braded lines for the feed. But since nowhere carries that stuff Im just going to have to wait until next weekend and get the actual lines and stuff off a car from a wrecking yard or something.
 
If you can't find what you need in the boneyard, you can order the parts from a Mitsu dealership. That's what I had to do when I went from 13G --> 16G.
