The upper turbo return line that connects to the turbo I think it is too big but the return that goes to the oil pan is a perfect fit the kit I bought was a 10 AN (12 in. ST/ST) oil return line from horsepowerfreaks.com
I don’t understand the question.
I think he is asking where to get a fitting for the bottom of his turbo that is for a -10 an line. That’s what I got from it.
Sorry about that I think I found a solution at
www.tunertoys.com
Use this flange to convert a turbocharger’s drain outlet to a -10AN Male Fitting. Perfect for braided steel or twist loc type drain lines. Machined from 6061 Aluminum, this one piece fitting is a strong solution for your drain line. This kit includes Grade 8 hardware, gasket, and instructions. This flange can be used on any turbo where the drain flange bolts measure 38mm (Center to Center) but I don’t know from what center to center or should I use the 44mm for my t3/t4
That looks like it will work and then I only need to buy the Gasket and bolts do you think my old bolts from a 8AN flange will work?
Do you think this paper gasket will hold? Will I need to put silicone on the gasket during the install?

dont skimp on it. buy the real stuff. IT looks ghetto if oil leaks.
It will work. I’m using the Turbonetics drain flange with 1/2" to -10an coupler like yours. It is a MUST to buy the gasket, it’s the most important part or you will be leaking oil there.
Here’s what mine used to look like:
One last question Jaylo did you put any silicone or thread lock before install or did you just tighten the bolts together.
thanks for your help guys
i dont tink its a good idea for a 90degree bro
use a 45
drewtyson: You just pretty much tighten things together, the inside of the couplers are tapered and it snugs right on the connector. So it’s actually the tapered ends that seals it not the threads.
But for the straight coupler just use a pipe compound or Teflon tape.
soontobe2ndGEN : I actually changed that part to a 45 because the oil was backing up.
