the oil return side on the turbo, where the oil return pipe connects or is fixed to the turbo. what is the best type of gasget to use?
would a sealer be a waste of time with the heat?

Thanks

ya should use a paper gasket, ya can get it in any motor factors. doesnt have to be thick stuff. never use a sealer on a turbo.. incase it gets loged in the turbo and causes damage...

I kinda thought that would be best method, one of my friends metioned copper but that wouldnt work either, wouldnt seal right

ya can get a copper washer a fraction of the size bigger than the return hole then just bolt it up. but it'll just leak. 2nd option would be a thin piece of copper sheet and just make a gasket. same job as the paper gasket... id trust the paper gasket more..
