Exclamation Need help with turbo oil feed pipes

hi lads, I've a fiesta rs 1600 cvh.. I'm fitting a t3/t4 turbo onto her but it said in the spec sheet that it needs a 10mm oil feed but as you know it's got a 6mm on it.. What do I have to do to up grade to the 10mm, what fittings do I need? Etc.. If you have any info at all in this area post a reply to help me out.. Thanks lads Danny.

Hi if it's a turbo from USA then that's a wast of time if your engine is a 1.6 those turbos are bigger then the standard uk t34's you will need more cc to get it spining, like a 1.9 or 2.0

I think it is, it a huge turbo altogether, what would you think be the best way to go
to upgrade the turbo.. Just a standard t3 turbo or would a English t34 do the job, I don't want loads of lag either, haven't looked into anti-lag just yet.

T3 stage 2 would do just fine stage 3 will be a bit more lag T34 from the states would even spin till you took it on the motorway mine wouldn't run less then 15psi on full boost was hitting 20+ I had the 1.9 ready to go in but wanted to see what a large t34 was like on a 1.6 and it wasn't good felt like a N/A car till I got over 60mph+ then it went nuts lol
