I have a 93 blacktop SR and I'm running a stock T25 turbo on it. I took the turbo off to replace the oil and coolant lines with the taka set, and the coolant lines went on fine, but I ran into a problem with the oil inlet line. When I go to put it on, the oil restrictor to the turbo sticks out to far to effectively screw on the 90degree part of the turbo line (the ex. manifold flange is in the way) It seems as if it could be solved easily by just taking an air tool and grinding away a bit at it just enough to screw on the oil line, and it wouldn't have to be grained down far enough to mess with the screw holes to connect the manifold. I was wondering if anyone else has run into this problem? And what did you do to solve it? Any help would be awesome! Thanks

ground down just a tiny bit off the flange and it worked perfect. Problem solved.
