"I don't think there will be any oil problems with oil becuase I'm running two oil feeds and two oil returns, I'm only going to tee the coolant. "

ya but the way the turbos sit cocked side ways all the oil will go to one side and not the other.

If the entire oil system is pressurized than wouldn't the whole housing be filled with oil? In order for the oil to only lubricate one side your saying that the turbo housing only fills half way? There is no air in the oil system. On that logic every time you corner hard the oil shifts to one side of the turbo. If it actually is a problem than I'll reduce the size of the oil return line of that turbo which would increase the oil pressure and fill the housing.

if you increase the pressure it might push past the seals when the oil gets really hot

That should prove the point that the whole housing is filled with oil. In order for it to push pass the seals that whole turbo has to be filled with pressurized oil

Your not suppose to tilt a turbo more than 15* I think. its for oil drain issues also.. You might be fine.. Then again im might smoke like mad..

the angle dosent look too bad, i think the angle is mostly for oil drain issues, if a turbo is on its side i dont think the weight of the oil will push it past the seals.

what car is this going in? very sick looking setup man!

Alright I just got off the phone with majestic turbo and Turbonetics and they said that the 34 degree angle of the turbo will not affect the oil getting to the compressor bearings. Putting the turbo at an angle was also the only way to fit everything in there.
