Need some help with the IAP oil feed lines. The instruction they provide are not too clear. I need to know how to connect each fitting. I've search but couldn't find wat i needed. Here is a pic. Thanks for the help.

First off, it looks like "B" is an oil feed restrictor. It's purpose is to minimize the pressure going to the turbo. You need to put that where the oil feed line would go at the turbo. After you put B into the turbo, now you can twist on one of either C or D. I reccomend you twisting on the actual fittings of C or D first so you dont have to mess around with the oil feed line until the end.

Next, find your oil pressure sensor next to your oil filter. it will have a plug behind it and is probably greased up with oil lol. Sorry though I do not have a picture of the oil pressure sensor but I'm sure you can find it. Anyways, take off the oil pressure sensor, twist on the fitting you've marked as "A" in the original spot of the sensor, and make sure its tight! Now after you put in "A", you put the oil pressure sensor in one of the two ports, and then the REMAINING C or D, (depending on what you used for the TURBO), will go in the second port.

Now that you have B on the turbo...A on the OLD spot of the oil pressure sensor...the oil pressure sensor in one of the ports of A, and either C or D on the other remaining port of A, and finally, the remaining C or D that you've placed onto the RESTRICTOR, you can go ahead and put on that oil feed line.

I'm sorry I don't have any pictures but I hope it was clear enough. Good luck and let me know if anything was unclear.

A screws into B. Because B is what screws into the block. it's nspt-bpst thread adapter. Then your oil pressure gauge and D screw into A while C should screw into the turbo. I had a different fitting with my kit for C and D. But A definitely goes into B because it is the thread adapter for you to put it in your block.

I see...I thought B was a oil restrictor. Just disregard my directions then...damn all that typing for nothing...

hey if you need a better set of instruction for the IAP kit PM or email me! I once spent a few hours putting together new ones with pictures and such to help act as a general example of how to install a turbo kit. its about a 4 meg pdf I made. They were supposed to be uploaded on the site..... but it never happened.
