    K26 Oil/Water fitting Differences

    The K26 I've just bought has the water feeds at 90 degrees to the oil and have considerably larger fittings, the oil fittings are bigger too. Can I get some kind of adaptor for this, or where can I get whole new lines to suit?

    Or am I better off selling this turbo too and getting one with stuff in the right place/size?

    Your probably better offer flogging that unit on and picking one up that fits straight on.

    That said it's not hard to make your own braided hoses up and every size fitting/thread is catered for, however it's expensive it can also be a PITA working out what bit's you need.

      Ah, I'll probably punt it on then, driving me nuts shopping for turbos, why on earth are there 8,000,000 different K26's?!

      I was hoping it'd be fairly cheap to RS2 my engine
