I bought my Turbo saver used awhile back and just now getting around to installing it. I had the instructions but misplaced them and I'm not sure if it listed the parts? But anyway, the part I need is the one that screws to the oil line feed on top of the Turbo and where one end of the hise connects to. Where can I find this part and what type of part do I need to look for/ask for?

TIA!

are you talking about the elbow, one end screws into the turbo center section, the other end the oil feed line screws on to? I've actually got the 90deg elbow that came with the turbo saver sitting around the garage. My turbo heat shield wouldn't fit with it on there, so I went to my local speed shop and picked up a 135deg elbow with the same ends that worked a lot better. If no else gives you a part number I'll go snap a pic of it at lunch. Either fitting should be easy enough to find.

That's the part I need. So your saying a 135 deg elbow will work better?

So what exactly do I need to try and find just the 135 deg elbow that fits one end into the center section and the other to the hose?

Thanks!

Here's the two fittings I have. Like I said, the 90 deg el didn't work with my shield. It wasn't the fitting itself, it was the angle the hose ended up at. With the hose sticking straight out toward the front of the car, I was going to have to really push down on the heat shield to get the hose to bend down that direction, and I didn't like that. So the other el I pieced together, and it oriented the hose downward, and was a much better fit. Don't have the thread sizes and such, but I bet someone here does.

Thanks John! That's the same piece I got today from a local speed shop. It's an -6 AN to 1/8 fitting, I think (have to double check the box).

But I can understand how the other one did not fit as I too had one of those fittings and it did not work for me.

Will try firing the car up tomorrow and hope I don't have any leaks.

Thanks again!
