Default Help Oil Feed to turbo

OK so before i start the car i was curios if the method used in the pictures will provide substantial amounts of oil to the turbo.. i ran a t fitting off the sandwich plate off the block...one side is blocked and the other connects to oil feed...is that fine will it provide the turbo with enough oil

The T fitting is more than likely for a pressure sensor or oil cooler. If you're not running either, pull the plug out of the flat end of the t fitting and reinstall it into the port where the t fitting is now.

You should probably just start asking your questions in the Greddy thread instead of starting a new one every time you need help, it just tends to clutter up the FI section

From the looks of the fitting it's a -4. Make sure your turbo has an oil restrictor either built into the center section and if not then get one that will slow oil flow to the turbo. A restrictor that is .065 is what you will be needing for a small or medium frame journal bearing turbo. Running a -4 straight to the turbo, if no restrictor exists, you will run the risk of pushing oil past the seals in the turbo and thus killing the turbo.

the greddy kit has an oil restrictor built into the union fitting that connects the oil feed and turbo center cartridge.
