Hi iain, just to check, the braided oil feed pipe you sent me was very thin in inside diameter as compared to the original, from the connections right through the pipe, is it anything to worry about?

it might be a bit thinner but dont worry at about 50-60psi of oil running through it, your turbo will get plenty of oil *tongue*

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

It will be fine mate, its exactly what nearly all turbo'd minis run *smiley* its from the same place that all the rest come from *wink*

Just needs consitent pressure not masses of it.
