I just need to know where to get a couple of things.

First off, where can I get the T adapter for the oil feed line. The link in Presure2's post no longer works. I tried to do some searching online but i'm coming up dry. I think i'm just searching for the wrong thing. Anyone have a link or want to point me in the right direction?

Also, i'm having a hell of a time trying to find a oil pan. I actually found one on ebay a couple of months ago and it was the only one so I bought it. 2 months later I never received it. Emailed the guy and all he did was refund my money. No idea what happened there, at least I got my money back though. I've checked junk yards around my area as well as online, not finding anything. Would it be easier to just tap the stock pan for the return line? Anyone done this yet?

Last question....The CT-26 (off an all trac) requires oil and water(coolant) correct? I purchased a turbo but haven't received it yet so this question might be premature but how do I know which is the in/out and which one is oil vs coolant. Also, if this turbo does require coolant where do we take this from?

i use a 1/8 NPT brass fitting that you can get at any NAPA. i then change the threads with a 1/8 BSP die that i have so that part threads into the head. as for the water lines, you dont really have to hook them up. i ran my setup for over a year without the water lines hooked up. As for oil pan, i have a 3S-GTE oil pan that i welded the oil level sensor location closed. I include these pans in my 5S-FTE turbo kits. I have only 1 pan left right now. but a good place to get them is on MR2oc.com

Is your kit done yet? I haven't checked in a while but last I saw it was still in testing/tuning phase. Will that 1 pan you have left work and is it for sale smile.gif ?

I would love to not have to run any coolant lines. I'm not looking for any crazy numbers (yet) and i'm planning on running with the stock CT-26 and stock wastegate which is 7PSI right?

i actually get about 8PSI with my stock exhaust. if you have a better exhaust that flows better you can go 12psi safely.

ill get back to work on the kits in a few weeks. im graduating on the 20th.
