I run a oil SS oil return on my turbo Honda that looks almost like that one in the last pix. I would love to have something like this for my DSM. I had a hole at the flex section on my eclipse, i had to cut it out and replace it with a section of heater hose. I don’t know how long the hose will last.
How much would this kit go for.

 

As long as you make them with a leak proof garret flange I will probably get one. What is the price looking to be?

 

I second everyone elses comments, I'll be in if the price is right

 

Looks like a good product idea. I definately want one. Keep us updated.

 

Thanks for the feedback guys, keep it coming. I cant post the price we have in mind, but I can tell you that it will be the same or a little bit cheaper than other lines out there that use the Home Depot style brass fittings.

 

ill be waiting for a price on them

 

The Mitsu/Garrett hybrid turbo's (with Garrett center section, like the PTE's) probably will need a flange that bolts up with a 30-45* angled AN male fitting. I believe without that, and the fitting pointing straight down, the SS hose will be rubbing against the front motormount bracket. I guess test fits will prove otherwise, but that's the only issue I see in doing this. The mitsu turbos should have no problem.

If it's no problem with fitment on the Garrett center sections, or you end up making a bolt on angled AN flange, then I'm definitely up for one. I can't say how many times I've removed my turbo in the last year and had to replace that oil pan gasket.

 

There has been a demand for this type of thing for awhile. I would suspect that they would sell quite well if provided at the right price.

No people, he cannot provide a price on here without violating the vendor rules.

 

I want one.

 

Thanx for the responce. I just made those flanges as prototypes to gauge intrest. I have a vendor who I will be regularly making these flanges for. Once I setup a production run, they should be pretty cheap. I would say compatible to an Earls banjo fitting or something like that in price. Garret flanges will be identical except the holes will be drilled for M8 cap screws in stead of M6 cap screws. As for a kit, details still have to be sorted out on prices for fittings and such.

I am leaving town for a few days and will start production on these once I return mid next week.

Thank you
Rob

 

Ive been waiting for something like this since early last year when i got my pte, and the oil return kept leaking no matter what i did. I would definitaly get one for the right price!

 

doesn't ams make a very similiar kit for the garret centers?

 

Something I would defnitley be interested in.

 

Great product idea. Count me in.

 

Garrett lines will also need to take into account that there are different manifold assemblies out there that place the turbo in different locations. You'd probably want to include a little extra length of the hose and have the users cut to fit the line.

 

We will be taking install pics soon with both Garret and Mitsu centers so you can get a visual on the fit. I think that 7" will suffice. There appears to be plenty of line to do the job with 6" and its unlikely a custom manifold would make a turbo sit any further than 1" from the stock location so at the moment I thinks its safe to say 7" of line should be plenty.

 

i would love one of these.......for the mitsu turbos.....how can i find out how much they are since it cant be posted here?

 

Via PM or email.

 

thanks.....

 

I will buy one as soon as they are avaliable.

 

Does anybody know if there are any differences in Garrett oil drain flanges, or are they all the same? Will a flange for a PTE SCM50 work for a FP30 and a SBR GT-14 and a non-hybrid full Garrett 60-1 turbo?

The Mitsu flanges are done, hopefully once some ss line and AN fittings come in some kits should be ready to go soon.

 

I'm all in on this IF the price is right.

The hybrids all use the a Garrett center section. So if the flange fits a GT30 it should fit any other GT series turbo or hybrid using a GT cartridge.

 

But is the oil drain flange on the GT series center sections different from the T3/T4 series center sections? We want to avoid advertising a flange that fits all Garrett turbos only to find out that different styles of Garrett turbos need different oil drain flanges.

 

GT30 CHRA's use a drain similar to a mitsu, it just has larger bolt holes.

I understand the t3/t4 housing to use a different configuration.

 

Any new news on the development of this product?
