What is Oil Temp?

[RSchwarzli]

I am plumbing in the last of the twin turbo lines (HX35 and HT3B) and I have hit a stumbling block.



For the oil drain hose (from the bottom of the turbo to the oil pan) I need to get hydraulic hose that can handle the oils temp. But I do not know how high of a grade I need.



So my question is, approx what is the temp of oil exiting the turbo assuming 1400-1500 deg max pyro?



Thanks!

Use silicone tubing! Oil temps can run near 250 deg, I suspect close to 270 coming out of the turbo.
