    Default 1st gen 3sgte, with 2nd gen turbo..problems

    The oil lines from the gen 1 engine wont match up to the new turbo. Its a ct26 off an mr2, maybe a 185. The oil line from the gen 1 engine dont line up....when I use the line from the mr2 engine I have, it is completely different.....neither is a good fit at all.

    This turbo seems to be stock yet has a considerably larger inlet only then both turbos from a 165, and 185.....I have three turbos here, I will use the larger one of course, and if anyone needs a ct26...(needing a rebuild)....I have two. both 165, and 185 versions
    Thats beside the point but could be handy if anyone wants them.....$100 each


    Can I modify the original line to suit...(it all will bolt up, ..just out of place)....surely some one has done this before.?

    you may possibly have to have new lines made up for it ?
    im not to sure though i have never experienced this,
    im guessing the turbo that you say has a larger inlet has probably been highflowed.. ?
    What is autosalon? Sounds kinda homo.

    it isnt completey opened up like a high flow I have offen seen... It funnels down to a rougher part at the inlet turbine, all is still identical to the others...its just larger.
