holset oil drain

[DSM315]

Will a -10 oil drain work fine for a hy35 or hx35. i have been searching this all day and cant find anything but oil feed. The oil line is not kinked.

Most people agree touse a 12an drain. Here is the thread you need to read to decide for yourself. http://http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/turbo-system-tech/331710-garrett-holset-turbo-users-your-oil-drain-may-too-small.html

Yeah, I was just going to put up that link. From what I have heard I would be using at least a -12 return line so that the oil doesn't get backed up.

I run a 10 AN with no problems. My oil pressure doesnt get over 60psi at WOT. It seems the guys running higher pressures run into issues.

Thanks. i have no idea why i couldnt find that. another question will running a -10 drain setup make the compressor wheel hit the housing? or just blow the seals?

i was running a -10 on my last setup and didnt have ny problems either. but i would rather be safe then sorry. so you dont think it will be an issue? running an hy35 with -10 drain?

Make sure you don't have excessive crankcase pressure! I have a -12 line but my center section has seeped some due to the crankcase pressure I have. I am currently resolving that issue with one of Calan's catch cans

 

[silvreclips]

You would only blow the seals, bearing damage causes the wheel to contact the housing

ok thats what i thought. thanks for all the replies everyone. all my questions are now answered.

I use a stock 2g return line but my oil pressure doesnt go above 75psi at redline. Had to port the oil relief hole and cut half a spring, my H1c was used with god knows how many miles, ive had no preoblems with it since I bolted it on 2 months ago. Its all in the oil pressure stay in spec.

I'm pretty sure the standard - per holset - was just about -12an return lines. If you're going to do anything else, just make sure you can monitor your oil pressure at all times.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I have been thinking about changing my 10an drain to a 12an. Is there any modifications that have to be done to use a 12an? If so does anybody have a link? much appreciated

if it's not kinked or have any otherflow reducing problems a -10 is more than fine. I used to run a kinked ass piece of #### heater hose and a stock 1g drain cut off at the flex section. Worked fine fore me, giving the turbo way more oil than recommended.
