Rear oil pipe on stock twins
 
I'm having trouble getting this pipe on. It's the pipe with the heatshield over it that goes from the secondary turbo to the rear iron. When I took it off, it came off with no problems, but now for some reason it seems like it's bent. Anyone experience this? It's almost as if I am missing something in between the iron and the pipe, but I don't think I am. I have 2 of them and both are the same.

so, the drain line? just bend it a little.

You have to force it on there, those oil drain lines get bent really easily. Ther rear one doesnt bend as easy as the front but it is often times difficult to get to line back up. Worse case scenario you loosen all the turbo bolts/nuts to provide some extra clearance.

loosen the piece thats attached to the turbos as well, it may provide enough slack to get everything back together.

Like DJ said loosen the turbos up so they can move around then put the oil pipes on and then tighten the turbos down.
