Anyone know a place near or around the airport that will have the stuff i need for my turbo oil lines?(lines and fittings). I am just trying to find some place local instead of buying the peices online…

all you need is normal fuel line and high pressure barb fittings. your turbo only needs about 30 PSI to operate. if your oil pump puts out more than that… you need to put a restritor in the line.

I’ve run nothing other than fuel line for all the turbo and super charger projects I’ve done over the years.

vw runs at a base oil pressure of 1/2 bar (6psi), and will go up to 5 bar (73.5 psi), pending oil weight. do not put a restrictor inline tot egh turbo, it is not needed. run a 4 an feed, and a 10 an dump. go to summit, you are close.
