Long story short I think the bearings went out on my turbo, which is a FC turbo on a 13B-RE motor.

I'm going to be pulling it off to have someone look at it, and if it is the turbo have it rebuilt and redo the lines with better hoses and AN fittings.

Im wondering what size line I should use for the input, and where to fine the AN adapters to go into the turbo?

Is the oil input flange a T3? T4? Im trying to find adapters and don't want to get the wrong one.

Also, it seems -10AN seems to be the standard for a drain, do anyone know where I could get the adapter to go into the front of the motor for the drain?

Should I use some special hoses? Ive just been using regular rubber lines, and I'm wondering if it started deteriorating sending rubber into the turbo.

TIA,
Tony

 

stock FC turbos use standard T3 oil feed and drain. The S5 front cover oil drain bolt pattern is the same iirc, but i do remember having to widen the holes in a T3 oil drain flange to get it to bolt up, but it could have just been the flange i bought

 

Thanks a lot.

What size line did you use for the feed?
