So me and my buddies last night finally got my turbo setup mocked up on my car, I've been gathering parts for quite some time now, and things didnt quite go as planned.

here are a few pics of last night






My custom manifold I made myself




So this is my problem, I got the tuner toyz fitting, and the stealthmode oil kit, and the ---- is just hanging way to low! I mean I'm really worried about Smoke issues with my car. What do you guys think? the angle sits funny. I was thinking about getting a dry sump oil system? any thoughts !?

Thanks

Erick

 

yeah... would scare me too... it's all that stupid manifold's fault

 

Hmm... Well what do you think I should do?

 

it doesn't look THAT bad... I would just go for it... I don't see anything you could do that would really help except for modifying/changing that manifold

 

I think it will cost less to change the manifold, or make it shorter. a sump will cost more, plus I dont know jack about the sump. thats scary!

 

That's not my kit.
We've had these problems before. At worst, the line running parrallel to the ground has been done before. We just assume that the motion of the moving car will bring the oil back to the pan. Put a needle valve on it and just get enough oil that the turbo needs. Nothing more.
It definately isn't ideal, but this could work.

 

I agree.

 

yeah seeing as you havent hacked up any pipes yet rotating would be your best bet if your worried about it. You might be ok with just a needle valve and some good oil though.

 

thats genius! :P
