Please help shed some light on what's going on here. I am installing my BNR stage 1 and I am using what I thought were the stock oil supply lines. As you can see, they are WAY OFF lining up. Which is the bad line? Are they both bad?

 

The hardline coming from the front iron seems to be too short... But then again, the hardline on the turbo may have been bent back too far. Where did you get them from?

I use this without any issues... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Turbo-Oil-Fe...#ht_1425wt_689

 

They both look bent to hell, also the turbo section near the junction appears too kinked and may inhibit oil flow. Id source a replacement.

 

^This is all what I'm thinking.
I had the old greddy kit on the car, and it had a flex line coming from the main feed to the turbo
I had bought the stock turbo cheap a while back because I was going to have it rebuilt. I also sourced some lines. Looks like they are fubar. I looked at various pics and by comparison, both of my lines are off. It's subtle, but obviously there.

dwb87, I JUST found that while searching. The feedback looks good, but the "FD3S engine" made me weary...

 

they both look messed up

 

Just to let you know, I noticed the same thing before I had purchased it. I made very sure that when I received it, the banjo bolt fit into my S4 TII front iron. The only thing that I modified was the oil inlet that bolts to the turbo. I drilled out the dinky little hole a bit more.

 

Just ordered it! Why the hell not?
The hole is for restriction... there is debate whether or not the stock turbo needs it.

 

^ Nice. I was part of one of those debates before. When I had my BNR stage 4, I had to use an in-line restrictor. I now have a stock S5 turbo. (Don't ask why...) - For this turbo, I won't need any restriction. I have an extra undrilled oil inlet anyway.

 

hmm....$20 seems like a nice deal on that line, I spent $50-60 making mines.....

 

I was going to make mine... was looking on summitracing for parts. Certainly would be a lot more money. Let's see if "cheap" holds up.
