I would have searched, but it doesn't seem to be working.

What size tap do I need and what fitting should I use for my turbo oil feed? I am going to be drilling and tapping the piece that goes right above the oil filter.

Thanks,

5/16 to drill the hole. IM QUIKR is correct on the tap. Dont forget to get the AN to NPT fitting.

Thanks guys, I actually ordered yesterday before there were any replies. I am going 1/16 pipe to -4AN...which I am assuming will be ok since most people are running restrictors to keep oil pressure down to the turbo.

Thanks,

it's going to be a little tough to tap it for 1/16 pipe, as the meat of that adapter is recessed a bit in the hole itself.

Not to mention the existing hole is just about the right size for the 1/8 tap and drill.

Just remember, you don't run a pipe tap all the way in like a normal straight thread tap/fitting. Usually only about 3/4 the length of the tap. But it's always good to test fit the fitting as you work the tap in to make sure you have enough taper to seal before the fitting bottoms out.

Thanks for the help guys, got it together today. The 1/16 would have been too small, the 1/8 was perfect.

Also, I found a cool fitting that has a reducer for the oil pressure built into it...no NOS jet for me!
