searched and still confused. if i got taka lines for my t25 can i still use the same lines for my s14 t28 when i swap it over? i hear people using the stock t25 lines with the t28 and was fine. also read that the oil restrictor in BB turbo is in the turbo itself and not the lines. someone confirm this. i need stainless lines asap.

there is an oil restrictor built into the turbo you can see it when you look into the oil inlet.

So why are there 2 seperate line kits for the t25 and t28?

The s14/s15 lines have a .035" restrictor.

Its not for the turbo its for the blocks. T25 is for the s13 it fits the t28 im living proof. T28 is for the S14.

i have seen what your talking about with the different taka lines listed for the t25 and t28. but i am 99.9999% certain that all the fittings are the same, and i know that the alignment of the t25 vs t28 turbo can not be that far off. so i am going to go out on a limb and say that either will work with either and the reason that they are listed differently is because whoever was selling the lines was tired of people sending them emails asking if this will work on the *insert turbo designation here*

I've just know that the s14/15 turbo lines inlude a restrictor b/c of the ball bearing turbos. That's all!

the s14/s15 turbo lines don't exactly have an oil restrictor in them. the 4AN size line acts as a natural restrictor. but there isn't any added parts in the mix.

P.S. i have the s14/s15 taka lines
