where to get a .8-.125 oil reducer?
 
Guys I have not been able to find a shop that carries these oil reducers. Most have the .40 but I have read that its to small and will smoke my turbo. Anyone have a supplier for these reducers?

Buy the .40 and get drill bits, .8 or .125 and drill them out to the size you need. http://www.math2.org/math/general/arithmetic/fradec.htm Help you out with sizing

I might have to buy this one a .60 and drill it out as stated above. I would however like to find the right one that I need but I will give this a shot.

Better off getting the one from ATP and drilling it out. I did this with mine with no ill effects yet. I think the drill bit I used was 11/32? Gives you .9 but I could be wrong.

Pretty small one, make sure you do it in a drill press or watch out you don’t snap a bit in it, I snapped one of the bosh titanium’s in mine and had a bitch of a time getting it out.

The nice thing about the ATP one is its solid brass, I had previously tried to take a 1/8npt to –3 fitting fillit then drill it and it wasn’t the prettiest but worked, the Atp piece is much cleaner.

Use hand drill bits something like this http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXL469&P=0 It's like drilling out fuel/air jets for a carb.

I just bought this one. It says the hole is .60 so I guess I will just try and get it as close with the drill bit listed above as I can.
