Ensuring the lubrication of the turbo is absolutely essential due to the high RPM and constant exposure to the high temperature of exhaust gases; a shaped pipe ensures a constant supply of oil: it is composed of two fittings, one to connect to the base and the other to the centre of the turbocharger, and a support bracket that keeps it securely fixed and prevents stress from vibrations.

Therefore, attach the eyelet to the base and the fitting with the threaded nut to the turbo, tightening both with the specified torque using a torque wrench.
