I tapped the oil pan on a Miata at the very lowest point in the pan over a year ago and its still kicking. Thats actually where the company says to install the return.

The Greddy turbo kit for the 2006 Honda Civic SI uses the stock drain plug location for the oil return line. The drain plug is replaced by a Bonjo Bolt to which the turbo drain line is connected.

Already tested, and proven to work OK.

I think most the problems with having the oil drain below the oil level is on tired engines with a good amount of blowby. My old 2.3 was frick'n tired and would push oil out the dipstick on hard runs if I didn't cap it off. I'm sure if I had the oil drain below the oil level in the pan it would never drain good enough. To much pressure pushing against the surface area of the oil.
