i hope this isnt a stupid question, but which ports do i use on this turbo for the infeed and outfeed for the oil? in one picture it shows the outfeed but not the infeed. i originally just assumed that it was the brass barbed hose connection on the compressor side, but now im thinking that it might be in the center on the turbo.

also, is water cooling mandatory or will it run safely without?

the oil inlet is directly opposite the oil outlet, on the other side of the core. The oil outlet needs to be at the bottom when in operation.

You can get away without using the water cooling but it may reduce the life span of the turbo depending on how hot it's running.

Thats probably not the best turbo configuration for making a jet engine out of , the turb exducer is only marginally bigger than the comp inducer and the turb scroll A/R is pretty small meaning reduced flow capacity .

thank you, so what is the brass barbed hose thing on the compressor housing?

do you think it will atleast run still? not looking for a lot of thrust, just something that'll make a lot of noise and sound like a real jet engine

It'll run , but be very careful about fitting a jet nozzle as your temps could/will be a problem , with that tight turb scroll A/R you need to keep the temps down to prevent the comp going into surge

The brass barb is for " boost pressure" measurement , our P2 pressure
