Oil return pipe

[DeNoZZo]

What/where should i buy an oil return pipe for a 95 eagle talon tsi awd with a 14b turbo?

Just call up the dealer and ask for the oil return line for a 95 talon tsi awd. Shouldn't be much money and they should be able to get it.

go to classified or ebay but buy the one for a 1g so you don't have to drill the holes wider.

Will the holes match up with the ones on my oil pan then? I do have a 14b turbo, so a 1g line should match right up to that.

I have a 14b on my 2g and I'm using the 2g return line, not by choice though. Works fine and no leaks. I'm more than positive the holes don't seem to be drilled any further.

The turbo flange holes on the oil drain will have to be drilled/ported a little closer together. You can gasket match, or just drill till it lines up perfectly with the turbo. The bolt holes on the oil pan will line up fine.

Or you can simply buy a 1g oil return line. Or you can go the extra mile and get pushlock/SS AN fitting lines. It's up to you.

I want to go the extra mile... Tell me more please

But a 1g return line will line right up?

yes i just did a 16g swap on my 97 gst and i used a stock 1g return line, it bolts right up.

A little side note about the SS braided line and the fittings that ExtremePSI uses: I bought their install kit for my BEP M-trim that came with the SS line and AN fittings. Everything was the right part and everything, but one of the line fittings didn't thread onto the oil drain flange fitting. In fact, it stripped out the line fitting. On top of that, the other problem I ran into is that there isn't a whole lot of room between where the fittings would go. In other words, SS line doesn't like to make right-angle bends, and that's pretty much what it needed to do to get from the turbo to the oil pan, even with a 45* AN fitting. Since one of the line fittings was ruined, I decided to try their pushlock line. That seemed to work much better, as far as flexibility and the fitment of the flange fittings and line fittings. If you don't go with an OEM hard metal line, I highly suggest the Pushlock style line. It's a lot less hassle than the SS stuff. It may not look as pretty, but it goes together a whole lot easier.

If you want an aftermarket pushlock return line, I'd look at FP line:

Forced Performance Turbochargers: FP Blue Oil Drain Tube

I have one on my FP3052 & it works great & comes pre assembled. They list the one line to fit the FP30 series or TD05, so I would assume this will fit your 14b but you can always verify with them first to be sure. Tonns of guys run their $1400+ FP turbos on these, so you can trust the quality.

I have this line used on my fp3150 turbo and it leaked out of the box unfortunately. Reported it to FP and they responded with telling me to take it apart and seal the npt end fittings with teflon tape. I only just got around to doing that and I am pretty sure I still have a slight leak which either means the yellow teflon I used didn't do the job or the push-lock line is leaking (where it slides over the brass npt fitting).

I personally haven't seen such issues reported on this site so I might just be an unlucky case. At a minimum I'd recommend the yellow teflon tape on the fittings prior to install if this is what you go with.

Like others have said though you should be able to use the 2g line fairly easily.

That sucks you are having a leaking issue with your FP line, I've yet to hear of anyone having an issue with these & mine works great as well. Give if a good wipe to get all the surfaces clean & then start the car or go for a short drive as required so your able to source exactly where the oil is coming from. If it is at the threads, like you said its a simple fix with some thread sealent but I would advise you to avoid any type of teflon tape. It is very easy for small pieces of the tape to break off & clog small orfices, etc. Use either pipe dope or a teflon sealer liquid paste. Personally I've used the Permatex high temp, liquid teflon paste many times & its works perfect

If you are going to use a 1g return line it must be off of a 7 bolt. I tried to use the one off of my 6 bolt and it is way too short. I just used my stock 2g return line and took a dremel to drill it closer. It took some time but I got it done and it seals good. You will more than likely need bigger washers for the bolts because you tend to hit the side a bit with a dremel and take it out a little more than needed.
