Running Oil Lines to the Turbo on K24/K20 | Turbo Toaster Part 4: Oil Lines

In this video, I will show you how to tap into the oil pan and the engine block to run feed and return oil lines to a turbo. The particular setup I am working with is a K24 using a T fitting at the oil pressure sender with a 4an line feeding the turbo. I used a bolt-on bung on the oil pan to run a 10an return line from the turbo. The kits from eBay don't go with the gt3582 turbo, so I also had to modify the oil fitting on the turbo to fit.

I have the exact same element and plan on going a similar route as soon as I can find a new daily. Can't wait for more of this series, you're doing great.

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

Appreciate the love!

[@sashalakota8292]

ok thank you.

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

Absolutely!

[@regalt1987]

Loving this man... need to do this soon

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

Its all coming together!

[@RoadsterAlex]

I added copper washers between that fitting and turbo so I can’t overtight it which is pretty easy. Same with the water lines

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

Always a smart idea to not bottom out the fittings

[@sewkingwet]

Nice job, hope you install a better oil filter than FRAM like a WIX

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

Haha, yeah this is actually my buddies car, and that was one of the first things to go. I dot a nice mobil 1 filter on there now.

[@fredthomas8888]

I went to the hardware store and got a T fitting but couldn't get it to thread the block. Oil sensor threads easily into it but won't thread the block. Did you use flare fittings to thread the block?

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

The threads to the block are 1/8" BSPT. Do not use an NPT fitting to connect the T to the block because it will cross thread.

[@KemoDonTV]

Where did you get the T piece for the sending unit?

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

I got a kit off of eBay that had the AN line and some fittings.

[@KemoDonTV]

What length is the oil drain line?

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

I custom made mine, but I would say it was around 3ft

[@sashalakota8292]

where can one purchase that turbo kit??

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

It is not a kit per say. I bought everything separately on Amazon and eBay and put it all together.

[@k20z3keith7]

What's the increase in oil capacity if any? Like 4.6 quarts to what?

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

I really couldn't tell ya, I just filled it up on to the max on the dipstick...any variance that the oil lines has is not going to move it out of that range

[@winm7479]

You can't tell the difference between metal and aluminum oil pan? Use a magnet

[@TheMileHighMechanic]

Lol, I know that and I don't know why I said it, but what I meant is I cant tell just by looking at it.
