Our turbos use oil for luberication. I think cooling as well. Anyooo. The oil pressure is so high in a rotary, without a restrictor pill to lower the oil pressure, the turbo seals will begin to leak. When you buy a aftermarket turbo, you sometimes need a pill to restrict the oil.

Holy hannah Chris....that is one very nice looking engine bay - more specifically the rotary jewelry in the engine bay.......
I can't wait to see the wheels turning on this properly done S4....of coure you're probably a little anxious too eh?
BTW, you must have a small fortune invested in AN lines/fittings, that sheeat adds up REAL fast.
Once again - keep up the good work, you make this rotor-head proud!

Honestly Aaron, I could not tell ya. I really never kept track of the money. If I was to guess, $1200.oo That includes the FPR, Oil Cooler lines, Fittings, Pulsation Damp, walboro pump, braded lines, An fittings, and splitter blocks.
$3100.00 is some bank!

A/C and power steering? What's that? Car never had it, never will.
My fuel system was also probably a little more unique then most. And that bill included the pump, filter (2 of them), FPR, etc. etc.

That is a little tough. You see, everyone I have seen has a different setup. If you noticed, I moved my alternator. That allowed for more room for my plumbing. If you look at RX-Heven's setup, his is different because he was using FD manifolds. The best thing you can do is draw it out several times. Go to FC3SPro.com I think it is. RTeds site anyhow. He has a good drawing to start with. Feel free to hit me up. A parts list from mine will be quite diffferent from say, anyone elses, and visa versa.
