Default horizontal oil drain - Anyone ever run??
I'm having a rough time clocking my turbo and I don't want to take it to a machine shop yet. As it sits, the oil return is horizontal. I know that it's gravity fed only for the drain, I just want to know if anyone has ever ran a turbo w/ a horizontal drain?? If so, how long, and any problems...

Thanks for any comments..

Don't do it. Clock the turbo. Every one has done it. If you don't I give you turbo about 5min of idling time!
