TurboSprint

Guys I want to thank you for your comments, recommendations and opinions on my questions, your input on this have given me plenty to think about. Kind regards Peter

Hi StarletRick, Thank you for your reply, The turbo has the pipes with it so thats not a problem, and my description of what I thought was the oil line was bad it is a solid tube with a bango fitting. I'm putting the turbo on a Triumph sprint st with a 1050 cc motor, it redlines at 9,500 rpm and I only want to run about 3 to 5 pound boost, I got the turbo pretty cheap so I figured I'd see if I could fit it to the bike. The bike is water cooled and pretty easy to tap into that system, the oil cooler is just there as well and easy to tap into, its the oil drain that Im concerned about as I'm not sure how to run that back into the motor as yet, does much oil come from the return and would a catch can work or will it drain my sump?

Hi Guys, I came across this forum while looking for some information, and thought if you guys don't know then no one would. I have purchased a ct9 turbo that comes off a toyota starlet, I wish to fit this turbo to my motorbike, but I want to check on how the water cooling and oil hoses connect, The turbo has two two small pipes out the top and I'm pretty sure they are the water inlet and outlet pipes, it also has a small tube with a braided fitting attached that looks to me to be the oil in line, next to this is a larger pipe that I was told was the water outlet but it looks more to me like its an oil overflow/excess tube of some type. I'm wondering if someone could confirm I'm correct or put me straight on how these pipes should be connected, I want to put this turbo on a triumph sprint motorbike I can tap into the water system of the bike as well as the oil cooler line for the oil, but I'm not at this stage sure how I would connect the oil drain line into the bike as yet, I'm assuming again this pipe needs to be connected back into the motor somehow. Any help that you guys could give would be much appreciated.
