Lubrication of the turbo is absolutely essential due to the high RPM, and at the same time, the oil also provides cooling for the device that operates in close contact with exhaust gases characterised by high temperatures. The pipe that carries oil to the turbo is shaped so as not to interfere with any other engine components and has appropriate connection fittings at both ends.

During the installation of the new pipe, it is very important to replace the copper washers at each fitting to ensure a perfect seal after tightening.
