Hi, I'm gonna install my Evo3 16g soon, and i'm planning on using my stock 2G oil return line, however i read that it needed some minor modifications(fileing) done. Anyone know or have any specific instructions to do this? I've seriously searched everywhere and can't find it. I dont feel like spendin 60$ for a new 1g one, or messing my stock one up. If someone can help me out tha'd be greatly appreciated.
 
You need to open up the holes on the top of the drain tube (the part that bolts to the turbo).

Mitsu turbo drain bults were spaced just a bit different than the Garrett ones. Put your 2g drain tube up to the 16g and you will see exactly what needs to be modified.
 
What turbo are you currently running? If it is the T-25 then you really need to buy the 2g install kit or you are hosed. This new dump tube should come with the kit. If you have the 14b then you shouldn't need the 2g install kit. 2g install kits usually come with the new dump tube, new oil feed line, the J-pipe for the intercooler tubing, and couple of bolts and crush washers. I may have missed a couple of parts.
