Default Turbo pre filter

Can I buy just the filter part to go on my original oil feed pipe and connect to my turbo?

i wouldnt use one of them - they are a timebomb waiting to take your engine/car with them.

I had a bailey one installed and it fooken snapped, piising oil over the exh manifold and nearly set the car alight. luckily i was near home and managed to get the car home without any further damage but it was a bloody close call.

I ended up fitting an inline pre-turbo filer which i bought from Pon when he used to work at SCC. Comes with a filter in the middle of a braided hose so no risk of snapping.

yes that is better as its similar to what i swapped it over for. Mine was about 70 quid a few years ago.

The autospecialist one is very similar to the bailey one i had which snapped - AVOID THESE TYPES AND GO FOR INLINE
