WTB some misc turbo parts

i need the wastegate actuator arm for the 3071r mm upgrade and the oil/water lines..

if anyone knows where i would be able to get those.. or could i use just a regular rubber hose or does it need to be steel braided?

go to summitracing.com , they have all kinds of hoses.
this is what i use for my oil return line

i am sure you can use this for your water lines too

just choose the right size for your application.

As for the actuator arm, i believe it is custom made to the specific turbo you have, so you might have to contact MM.

Use high temp rubber hose for oil return, ATP sells it.

AutoZone should have the hose you need for the oil lines- high pressure fuel hose works.

ATP also may have the actuator arm

Oil lines are made of oil resistant rubber. The inner surface is also often hardened or plasticized to resist degredation.
Oil will soften and quickly wear regular rubber hose, just ask anyone that has ever mistakenly put oil in their brake master cylinder.
