Is there really a difference? I just bought a evo 3 and thought I needed to get a 1g oil return line. But when I checked out extreme psi, the 2g is 12 bucks and the 1g is 57? The pics are identical and the part number in the pic is identical. But the part numbers for the site are different... It seems to me that they know how much demand there is for these and so they jack up the price? Technically, since the pics have the exact same part in the pic, as well as the same part number on the part shown in the pic, could I not just get the 2g one for 12.xx bucks and save my money? Has anyone used their 2g line on a evo 3?
Here are some links:

As far as i know the onlt difference in them is were the screws go on the turbo. The 1g the holes are closer and they are further apart on a 2g. That is why people that put a 14b or 16g on a 2g sometimes just grind the holes out on there stock oil return line so they dont have to buy a new one.
 
Wow, that is some price difference, can that be legit or is it just a typo? Either way like was said they are the same line except the bolt spaceing at the turbo end is slightly different. To run a Mitsu center section just file out the holes abit on the 2g line to get the correct spaceing. Just use a new Mitsu turbo side gasket as a template & you'll be set, this is what most do when swapping out the T25 to a Mitsu series center section.
 
^^ I have to lean toward what Daren stated. I think you should call up Extreme PSI directly (ask for Hung). This is a great vendor, and that price difference seems highly unlikely.
