Default Td05-18g oil return gasket????

Do I have to get one from Greddy or is there something else I can use? I got the car out back together, but have s slight drip from the O/R on bottom of the turbo. Bolts are tight so I assume I just need a new gasket.

Oh, 1 more thing. Can the factory fuel line be bent to move it a little? There is a bend in it that makes it run right up against the pass side turbo. It's heat wrapped, but I'd still like to get it further away. Just didn't want to grab and bent without knowing for sure. Thanks!

Check with ATP turbo or Forced Performance for the gasket.

Regarding the fuel line, you can make slight bends to it with a tubing bender. Be careful to not go too far and crimp it, because once damage is done there is no reversing it.

Just be sure to use alot of silicone with it. My turbo drain line(on my DSM) had to be redone three times before I got it right.

During rebuild I re routed my fuel feed line (as far from hot exhaust parts as possible), but skipped the EVAP hose cuz I was lazy.
On a hard track day the turbo hit the engine bay wall, came loose and hot gases burned the EVAP hose as you can see in pic. I'm glad that i moved the fuel line or the car would have set on fire.

As you can see the EVAP line burned despite I heat wraped it . It burned and the metal melted inside the wrapping!

Now I have solid motor mounts from Hal@IP and rerouted the EVAP house

They are prettymuch impossible to find anywhere else. We have to get them from Greddy. We always keep spare in stock.
