not high enough

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

It looks great(for changing your oil)

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

I've seen Greddy kits that have a fitting that connects the turbo oil return to the oil pan drain plug. :-\

looks like it would work fine to me, honestly my oil returns on my mustang are a more level than that in one spot

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

I think he was talking about it being at the bottem of the pan. :P

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

ahh i get it heh, it'll still work i bet :)

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

Yeah I think as long as the turbo is higher than the place the drain enters the pan, it should still work. Even if it is lower in the pan where the oil is.

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

wouldn't it back up at least a little?

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

can't see it not backing up unless it's running super low oil pressure

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

maybe it's a pan for a toyota previa

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

it doesn't matter how low on the pan the oil drain is, as long as the turbo sits higher than the oil puddle in the oil pan.

Just like when you siphon gas, as long as the gas tank is higher than where its going to, it'll drain

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

And the oil is going through at like 40 psi.

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

Probably, but let the pro's here tell ya other wise. :)

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

dude your sig is awesome

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

look at your dipstick sometime, k thanks. when running, yeah the level is lower, but that thing sits down at oil pickup level.

not supposed to be

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

if you got 40psi in your return tube you got problems :-X

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

my first setup had a low pan return, never had a problem with it.

you gotta remember that oil circulates from the pan via the oil pickup, so in a way having it like that does pull the oil from the return.

Re: I bet the return drains into this pan well!
 

turbos shouldnt see much more then what like 25psi of oil pressure, without a restrictor when u start the car 75psi of oil pressure is going through it. either way its not draining fast enough as it should.
