Thread: turbo oiling question

    What size line should I run to my turbos for the oil feed? My oil returns are going to be -12.
    My last set up (not set up by me) had -4 lines on the pressure side. It seemed to work ok.
    The new turbos are TO4's.

    4 has always been adequate on mine. I'm sure 6 would not hurt anything but probably not necessary.

    Shouldn't the drain go directly to the pan? Diesels drain to the pan or a dedicated galley.
