Someone let me know if this feed/return system will work good enough.
I just need it to work without blowing my turbo seal, and the system doesn't need to be ideal. Just as long as it "HMT" works.
-3an 40inch feed line with NO restrictor
1/2inch drain about 12inchs running down
t3/t04e turbo
probably running 10w40 oil
My engine has a rev limiter of 6,500rpm if it makes a difference

wooohooooooo, I thought the combonation of no restrictor with a 3an line and a 1/2inch instead of 5/8 would make my seals blow, but guess not-=). That was the question.

I've ran 3 turbos with a -3 line/no retrictor and never had any problems. They were all pretty new or just rebuilt so i guess I never really had them long enough to know. I'd just get an oil pressure gauge to monitor it.
