Ok so i relpaced the stock t25 with another stock t25, all went fine, the only issue i had was the oil hard line that runs from the turbo to the back of the engine. thought i had it on good but when i went to start and drive the car oil spewed every where. (i know some people said to get steal brad lines but just done have the money for it). now like all the lio is out of the car and the car is sitting in the local malls parking lot.......
so my Question is, is there any tools, methods, tricks to getting the hard line on that dam rubber hose thing???
any one done it before let me know thanks
anything helps.

Get a rubber hose that fits in the hard pipe, and go to NAPA and get a Gates Power grips, and Heat shrink that bitch on and call it a day. until you can come up with the funds !

not the rubber hose, yes those clamps are on both sides of the rubber hose, but where the hard line gos in to the rubber hose. its just a really small space and well an important hose lol its the last thing that needs to be conectted before it runs right again lol

your talking about the return line then correct? just get a silicone hose and the small clamps to go around it. the return part on the turbo will be the hardest to do since ull have to be under the car
