I can't find a very good T3 installment kit, or know a real good place to get my stuff. I am looking for the Steel Oil lines, the T fitting, and the gaskets. I can't get a very good search on the net, and Kalani if you are reading I wouldn't mind some help on this.

Industrial Hydraulic supplies or Aircraft supply shops.

And dont most regular tuner style shops have braided oil lines, not ricer style shit either. You should still be able to find the real stuff if you dont have an aircraft supply shop in the area.

I don't have one around here. I can ask Regulate I guess here, but they are expensive bastards.

Thanks Kalani by the oil line inlet, but can this work for an outlet also? Actually, what I ment to say is my turbocharger doesn't even have the connectors for me to even use these lines, it just has where you would get the mounts for the inlet and outlet. I was thinking how to do the outlet, I know it will go to the pan, but I am not sure what is the best way. In 2 weeks I will have my Ross pistons here, and I have a multi layer head gasket made for high lbs of preasure. The Machine shop here said I will be fine, and yes I am at a 9:1 compression ratio. No I don't know how a 1.8 may tune, but if I can't do it I'll go get it done by someone else on a dyno. Then I can watch them, and see how to do it so I can handle it from there on. 9:1 is what I am starting through, and yes I am almost done. [I had over 3,000 dollars in a tax return]

You need a bigger outlet because there can't be any pressure in or behind that line or the oil will just come out the seals in the turbo.
