owen twin scroll turbo
 

hi lads,
recieved the turbo last week, no feed return or water lines included. spoke to chevron and owen both say they need dimensions of the pipes

any ideas the sizes and lenghts for oil feed , return and water line
turbo has litchfield housing owen version of lm450.

i was also wondering if the oe pipes will fit the new turbo?


thanks
gary

Best speaking to them mate as if its anything like the lm450 i had oil feed problems with mine(oil supply too high) had to be fed from an oil gallery in the block and a restrictor as the turbo was flooding with oil and smoking.

If its a ball bearing core will need a restrictor. (Pink Arrow)

Find out if it uses a garret Gt30 core and just buy them from Scoobyclinic or anyone else who uses that core on their turbos, my need an adapter for the threads could be different.

thanks guys sounds complicated i will check to see what core it has on it

It's really simple,

Oil in, Oil out
Coolant in, coolant out,

If it is a ball bearing turbo an oil restrictior is required.

I reckon the ones that come with SC42+46, or the MD321 lines would work for you mate.

brill smurfy lad i will give latharal a call now

How did this turn out Raggy ...

I've managed to get a LM420 but I need oil feed set up not sure what is required and if I need a restricter

Heellllppp

I spoke to chevron who said for me to send him the old oe pipes and he would makes the lines up to suit. Currently my car is still in the body shop but they are fitting intercooler oil cooler and ap brakes. I won't have the car back until the end of next week then we will tackle the turbo. So currently no movement bud. Where did you source the 420

I see you still havn't sorted this did you try what i said ??

Mark at Lateral does the fitting kits.

Had my lm420 (which crazyspeedfreakz now owns) with the kit, NO ISSUES

We supplied an oil feed for Lee :thumb:

Raggy if you have got this sorted give hel performance a call or pm above

They supplied for me my restricter and braided line top quality stuff and the service was
Excellent :)
