OIL FEED LINE & TURBO OIL RETURN KIT TC XB MIATA MX5:eBay Motors (item 270476187876 end time Nov-05-09 18:38:54 PST)

Stuff like that

 

BEGi Bell Engineering Miata Turbo fittings, AN Fittings, Metric fittings, oil l - BEGi

Flyin' Miata : Turbochargers : Parts and upgrades : Hard lines for water and oil lines

id say invest in either of these!

gotta pay to play! buy the other **** and you MIGHT spring some leaks not to long after install!

 

100% Brand New, Really High Quality

thats whats wrong lol. I like how they say, REALLY HIGH QUALITY

I think id be worried about quality of the annodization, might be some cheap sprayed and would flake under heat but thats not something major

 

"1/8 NPT Adaptor - male fitting goes with the block."
Fail.

"All of turbo parts do need to modification in order to fits perfectly."
Yes, but do fitting not hit block?

 

**** flake?????

more like melt, catch on fire, and **** your car up!

 

Is it really that much of a task to save another 10 or 20 bucks?

 

Well I'm doing this on the cheap, so if I have to fork out for the BEGI or FM lines, I will, but how hard can it be to screw up lines?

 

not much on your end can be done.................more or less the parts failing!

 

Anodization does not catch on fire, its actually a hardened surface using oxidation and acids, It shouldnt flake unless its not anodized. Aluminum melts at 11XX degrees Fahrenheit. Last time i checked oil temps were around 200*F

 

dude order all your **** off summit racing and use summit racing AN fitting and there hose now there stuff is the good stuff.

 

have you ever heard of the word EXAGGERATION ?

 

forgot about that option! +1 on that one

a friend of mine here used there stuff, actually i think JEGS. his setup works great!

 

You get what you pay for. I bought a drain fitting off ebay and it didn't fit worth ****. I had to modify the hell out of that thing to get it to work. Never again ebay!

 

This person is asking a honest question. Dont feed him false information. Im simply stating the physical properties of said oil line kit. If you were new to the forum and asked an honest question, (after reading the FAQ of course) you would expect an honest answer; would you not?

 

Read post number 2!

honest advice, please read a lil more!

 

My ebay oil feed line works just fine.

 

In all honesty those ebay AN fittings dont look bad at all but if you order all summit brand parts from summit racing you'll spend half of what you would on ebay and get KNOWN quality pieces.

 

There is an eBay company out there that makes a Volvo header (IIRC, might be for another make) with the head flange welded in upside down, so the exhaust faces up and forward. You decide whether they are capable of screwing up a braided stainless steel line with crimp fittings.

 

That may be true....but I'm pretty sure EGTs can reach in excess of 1600 degrees. If you've got a line feeding a turbo, it's not too far from basically a HUGE heat source. I don't know how much heat dissipates within a few inches of radiation...but I would imagine that it's possible to see really high temps in the center of the turbo. Is it possible that it could lead to eventually fatigue/part failure? Just curious.

 

Hi have that kit in my miata, no problems.
It's pretty decent and does the job.
