Hey guys, I just installed my new turbo and am having a major problem.
What would you suggest to stop the leak on the oil feed end of the turbo.
It's like a running facet, thats how bad it is.

I'm running a 1/4flared to a 1/8 compression then to 1/4flared end to a SS oil line. It's leaking really bad from the thread on the turbo... any suggestions?
 
Garrett turbo or mits turbo with banjo bolts and crush washers? If it uses crush washers make sure you lube the washers so they aren't damaged and retorque them. If its just a fitting for garrett turbo use some teflon tape.

I'm running a Bullseye 50 trim, and it's leaking from the fitting, where the fitting meets the housing.
