OK, here's the dealio: I have a 16g turbo on the car, and I want to swap out the oil return line. It has kind of like a 2 piece crappy one that utilizes rubber hose(s). I suspect that it is not that great. I have a new stock one to put in. My current oil feed is the steel braided line that most of the DSM vendor's sell. I think the feed line flows more then the little return line can suck back in, causing me to burn oil. At least that's what I suspect. It's either that or the turbo seals. (Well I don't think it's the rings or the valves in the engine causing this oil burning)
Since I would have to remove the oil return line to inspect it, and because the stock one is cheap enough, I bought the 2 gaskets, the 2 little metal rings/seals...and the return line.
I want to know the most straight-forward way to swap it out. It's pretty hard to get to I noticed, without removing some stuff..? Anyone know the steps? Should I remove the radiator fan?
