FP inline turbo oil filter????

[SHEARER_TSI]

I was wondering if anyone was using one of the FP inline filters on a ball bearing turbo. I am thinking about picking one up to use on my GT42R. How do you like it? Pros, cons?

Mine works perfect. I feed my 30R from the head and filter it through the FP black restrictor. Easy to get to, easy to service, does the job.

Did you just use a screw in banjo fitting on the filter to the head?

Mine also works perfect. I have the red one attached to the head.

Pain in the ass. It seems these in line filters were made to be run off the head and not from the OFH. If you want to run it the right way off the OFH you have to buy some extra fittings which totally sucks. Just make sure you use a good amount of thread sealant paste when putting the thing together otherwise the in line filter will leak like crazy.

Got pics? I would like to see what line and fittings were used.

I'm feeding my Journal bearing turbo with a red one from the ofh. Has never leaked on me and it has caught some good chunks of metal from entering my turbo.

Also in the picture you can see the electronic sending unit after the filter monitoring the oil pressure to the turbo.
