Dred_85.5_TSI Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 TBI and MAFT. It took me running pig rich on a pair of 1050cc green secondary injectors to get the courage to go WOT on the pair of 850cc I have in it now. 15psi @11.8-12.1 AFR on WOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDodson Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) I need to know what size the oil feed line adapter is, I bought a M12x1.5mm adapter and it is to smallhttp://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e394/XLR8N/b1fd7c01.jpghttp://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e394/XLR8N/dc96d8dd.jpg Edited July 21, 2012 by PDodson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliConquestAlex Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Based on a quick internet search, that should be the correct size. You can get a thread pitch gauge set for less than $10 and figure it out.

psu_Crash Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) That should be the right adapter. My HX-35 was M12x1.5 Are you sure you received the adapter you ordered? I have had issues with being sent the wrong adapter even though the bag it came in was labeled correctly it wasn't the adapter they said it was.

starquestJOE Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 thats the same size in have in my hx40. but i use a 12x1.5 o-ring to 4an Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDodson Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 well after much research, I am missing another nut that screws on top, and that is what the m12x1.5 screws into I believe....did you guys fittings look like mine or do you have another fitting on your turbo......please check for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psu_Crash Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 I can tell you with absolute certainty that mine is M12x1.5 to 4-an. The adapter screws directly into the top of the center housing with nothing else involved. I think something with your adapter is incorrect, or you have some oddball holset?

The adapter screws directly into the top of the center housing with nothing else involved. I think something with your adapter is incorrect, or you have some oddball holset? Your adapter doesn't really look too small. The top of the holset threads are chamfered a bit so the adapter will sit in a mm or 2 before it starts in the threads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dred_85.5_TSI Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 yup mine is M12x1.5 I just put a -4AN fitting in it today (working on a restriction setup for the oil feed line) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDodson Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 can you guys take a pic of your oil feed line where it screws into the turbo please, you can text me the pic to 225.678.6584 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psu_Crash Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 I'm out of town for the week but I can grab a pic this weekend. Although i'm not sure what good it will do. Everything is assembled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDodson Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 well at long last I have finally found what I need, I had a small reducer bushing, like the ones that comes with gauges, I had one that fit into the holset....well that bushing went from the holset down to 1/8" npt, and I happen to have a 4an to 1/8 npt adapter and also had a 1/8" male and female adapter with a .65 oil restricter, so I got all that screwed into my holset and got the turbo clocked where the oil feed is straight up, I just need to get a snap ring pliers and clock the housing a littlehttp://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e394/XLR8N/7740A5F6-0DE5-465F-A658-4CC9F6794C06-13174-000008B21B2E6D51.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boostin20lbs Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 i used a large set of needle nose pliers. every time i used channel locks they kept slipping off. it got quite annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19cturbo Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Well if you have read my build thread, ive had my turbo off more than you could imagine.. channel locks worked best for me haha.. its kinda a pain to get the initial bite on them but once you do it aint going anywhere..

lionbull Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 You see anything wrong with this picture? feed-line too short.it will become severed when the motor unleashes its torque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
