i do believe you didnt try hard enough.. as i can get two screws into mine
( and for all your already hard work.. it centres up on the thermostat )

.. and for the small rejig to redo the one hole ( the same thermostat is used in s5 )
will bag even the tight **** s5 guys going for V mount

.. where the original plastic one is a pain in the ****

and the custom alum ones still may need a cut shut -

Hey you guys should make a nice ss line oil return line for single turbo setup with adapters, I know each turbo required different length but make diy kit available, all we do it to put it together.
Btw I do like all of the products sell, I do have few on my Fd.

There are just too many different flange configurations, lengths and angled fittings to offer a universal "kit"

Hi guys,

What grade is the flange? Working with a fabricator friend of mine to build a new filler neck and he wants to match the alloy.
