Porsche 993 Turbo PTrap Oil Lines

What are they?

The Porsche 993 Turbo PTrap Oil Lines are replacement turbo scavenge return lines.  They are the high quality stainless steel like OEM for very long life.   The best you’ll find!

What’s included?

• Turbocharger oil return pipe set
• Left and Right – Porsche 993 Turbo – oil pump to tank
• Optimized shape to prevent backflow to the turbocharger oil tank.

Why do you need them?

When you have oil smoke on startup after your 993 Turbo sits these are for you!  And if you don’t, just wait a while, and you will.   Porsche redesigned the scavenge return lines on the 996 and 997.1 Turbo for an anti-drain back, aka “P Trap” type.  This keeps the oil from the crankcase from backing up into the turbos, then the seals, then out into the exhaust creating the smoke on startup issue.  These oil lines prevent oil from flowing back to the turbocharger, which leads to excessive oil burning and smoking during startup or after a long idle time.

Who uses these?

Well, we do for one!  And many of our clients and distributors rely on these high quality lines for their builds.  These are for experts and DIY’ers alike!  Your engine deserves the best you can buy!
