Oil Lines in Turbo

I noticed the oil lines arent connected on my turbo when I purchased the car. I want to connect them but having a hard time figure out where the lines would be coming from for the turbo and leaving it.

Can some one please tell me where it is, and if its not too much, take a picture of it. It would help a lot... thanks in advance


also noticed theres no heat shield, should i put one on?

Heat shields would be good. See if you can find some used ones in the classified section, or make your own.

For the stock turbo, the oil drain line will run from the bottom of the turbo to the front cover of the engine. The oil feed line comes off of the top of the turbo, and connects to a metal hardline behind the air pump (or where the air pump would be). The hardline runs from the top of the front iron on the driverside of the car.

If your turbo is not stock, you will need to use aftermarket AN fittings and braided lines to adapt it.
