Get the proper generic drains for that cartridge with the proper bolt hole seperation from MTQ turbos and start again. Make sure you change oil feed restricotrs to the turbo's to. Use about a 1.5mm restrictor as those turbos are known to smoke a little with standard restrictors.

[tacker]

^^^^^^^^^^^^thats what i was lead to believe.?????????

[Beer Baron]

well I can't say for sure but HKS turbos come with another restrictor in the oil feeds banjo bolt.

[gun32gtr]

come to think of it i remeber looking at the hole where the banjo bolts went and seeing only a smallish hole

Kane do you mean oil drains or oil and water feeds?

You will need to slot out the standard oil drain to fit the 2860-5. Pita as it doesn't need to go and awfull lot but enough to make you spend a bit of time one the round file - unles you're a lucky bugger with and air file or similar.

I got fussy and trimmed the gasket to fit all pretty.

Cheers

ps my 2860-5 had what looked like oil restrictors fitted when i got them.

yep all slotted out,and they fitted perfect 4 i installed the turbos.but the thing i need to no now is,can i put the oil drainpipes on once the turbos are installed?there bolted up and the oil and water lines are on BUT i forgot the drain back pipes b4 installing.so is it possible to install after the turbos are ion the car....rear drain pipe is ion but the front isnt and its a bitch.....??????????

Haha its funny that everyone is discussing different sized oil returns and restrictors blah blah where i think hes asking is it physically possible to install the front oil drain with the turbos on....

It IS possible if you can manage to do it yourself, but if you cant then its not possible.

From memory its tricky even on the bench cos the lines to the core get in the way...

[tacker]

yes mate it can be done, i did it not easy but do able
