Turbos

Introducing Turbosmart’s OPR V2 Turbocharger Oil Pressure Regulator, a cutting-edge solution launched in 2022 that ensures steady oil pressure for your turbocharger. This innovative regulator features a return-less design with an integrated 44 Micron Stainless Steel Mesh Oil Filter, providing robust performance and protection.

The OPR V2 is the first of its kind, utilizing Turbosmart’s proprietary flow control method to maintain optimal oil pressure regardless of engine oil variables like pressure or temperature. It guarantees a smooth oil flow to your turbocharger, safeguarding critical components such as Exhaust Drive, Back & Charge Pressures from excessive oil pressure that could lead to oil consumption and smoke.

Gone are the days of guesswork with restrictors and complex plumbing for oil pressure regulation. The OPR V2 simplifies the process with its return-less, inline installation and the convenience of a built-in 44 Micron Oil Filter. This filter, made of serviceable and replaceable Stainless Steel Mesh, adds an extra layer of defense against engine oil debris that could harm your turbocharger.

Key Features:

Innovative Patent Pending Design Durable Aluminium (6262 T6) Anodised Body & Valve Regulated Oil Pressure Compatible with Most turbochargers Integrated Stainless Steel (304) Mesh Oil Filter -4AN Inlet and Outlet for easy installation 1/8 NPT Sensor/Gauge Port for monitoring Directional Inlet Feed Logic for optimized performance Laminar Flow Output for consistent oil delivery Compatible with all Engine Oils Designed and Manufactured in Australia

The turbocharger oil supply line is one of the most common failure points on N14 and N18-equipped R5X MINIs. Responsible for delivering a steady stream of pressurized oil to the turbocharger’s center housing (CHRA), this line keeps the turbo’s bearings properly cooled and lubricated. Unfortunately, its location directly alongside the exhaust manifold and catalytic converter exposes it to extreme heat. Over time, this heat causes the oil inside the line to harden or “coke,” creating a permanent restriction that starves the turbo of vital lubrication.

MINI attempted to address this issue by adding a retrofit heat shield to N14 models, but the problem continues to plague MINI owners. Furthermore, the OEM banjo bolts rely on copper crush washers that become brittle and warp under heat, leading to persistent oil leaks at the back of the engine.

To eliminate these issues, ECS developed a high-performance replacement for the factory turbocharger oil feed line (11657534454). Built from premium stainless steel braided -4 AN hose and engineered to withstand the harsh thermal environment of the N14/N18 engine bay, this upgrade ensures consistent, dependable oil delivery. A PTFE inner lining provides exceptional chemical and temperature resistance, while black zinc–coated fittings and banjo bolts offer improved corrosion protection and long-term sealing. The result is a durable, leak-free solution that outperforms the factory design in every way.

Features:

-4 AN stainless steel braided hose eliminates the OE swivel fittings for superior sealing and consistent oil flow

PTFE inner lining delivers outstanding chemical and temperature resistance

Black-anodized aluminum AN fittings offer improved durability and a refined appearance

Black zinc–coated banjo bolts resist corrosion for a long-lasting repair

Includes four new crush washers to ensure proper sealing during installation

Whether you're fixing an oil leak or performing preventative maintenance, choose the ECS upgraded turbocharger oil feed line for lasting durability and leak-proof performance.
