there's an E-clip that holds that hose to the hard pipe of the oil cooler. did they take it out for the turbo install? shouldn't have been necessary. remove the e-clip, and see if you can push the line further in, and then put the clip back on.
or take it back to the shop that did your install, tell them to fix it, and tell them to top off your oil.

I think you COULD.. But it may prove to be more difficult than you think. My mechanic ran into Many small problems along the way just making it take longer but if you are confident you can do it then I say go for it

I would send a picture but I just put all the pieces back on haha. I'm actually taking it to the Mazda dealership in the morning to have the new fuel pump put in so I'm going to have them fix the leak while I'm there

So you think they will try to charge me extra because of the turbo kit being in there? I don't know why they are such asses when it comes to that kinda stuff. I'm having the car towed there to be safe.

Funny guy. I guess having your car tuned after only a few months was just unacceptable. Those folks that had to wait for the better part of a year or longer for a date with Kan or someone similar and pay 5 times as much (or just live with a crappy running car for who knows how long) musta been real rubes, right?
Now that the service is nearly instant, I guess the price (practically free) is more palatable?
Dude - during the "terrible" times, for every complainer there were as many as one hundred other customers out there that were out-of-their-minds satisfied.
Honestly, with the way people are starting to abuse the new system, I think I may go back to the old method.
I can deal with 1 out of every 100 customers bitching and moaning.
So, in a word, STFU.![Buttslay](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/buttslay.gif)

I would do it but I dont have a lock ring tool to take it out. And also it needed to go to the dealership I wanted then to check out this oil leak that I noticed yesterday. It looks like it's coming from a line running to the oil cooler
