save yourself the head ache and get braided lines. But you have to play around and clock the turbo so the lines will line up.

This should work also. Make sure to get a new gasket what ever you do...

Yea that is the oil return and I was just planning on over rounding the bolt holes with a file to get a t25 tube to work. Just make sure to use a gasket with it.

I elongated the holes when I bolted my 2871 up a couple of years a go... no leaks. However, I'm thinking that since I have the turbo pulled off I might replace that oil return hose with a with a -10 (I think) stainless braided set up. If I end up doing it I'll post let you know how it worked out.

I had the same issue, but I just happend to have a fitting for a t3/t4 oil inlet that fit, and went to get some brass adapters to fit it to the hose.

I don't know if I have any pics of it but I'll look.
