Re: my first turbo setup.. 85 civic sedan
By far one of the cleaner builds on here.
As for the oil dump, it should be fine. My new set-up sits rather low and I had the turbo clocked straight back to the pan but I'd run it and then I would see a little oile under the care. HHere I found that my dump wasn't vertical enough and was causing pressure on my turbo seals causing them to push a little oil. Well, the only thing that seemed to work at such at tight and low set-up is pretty much what you did. A vertical center section with a street 90* to a 45* in the pan. Looks very similar to what you have, and praise God, I've drove it around a little and there are no small oil drips under the car so it appears as if it's working. Long story short, I have pretty good faith your dump is fine.
Yea, this was bad, lol:

Re: my first turbo setup.. 85 civic sedan
Thanks for the comments! Today I'm gonna work on cutting/fitting that bumper on... Boring
Alright that is good to know thanks a lot!
Yeah I was on there during most of the fi/motor swap days but the turbo section there is very slow so I haven't posted recently
