Re:USING OIL COOLER SANDWICH AS OIL FEED?
 

I think there may be some confusion between "sandwich" and "remote" adapters.

The remote adapters are made for sending the oil out of one fitting for cooling and filtering, then bring it back in the other fitting to the engine.

Sandwich adapters like the one sold by Golden Eagle are created exactly for the task you are trying to accomplish. The GE adapter even offers both a large and small outlet. One has a 1/8NPT female thread, and the other outlet is an o-ring type outlet in about a -10 size. USe the little outlet for turbo, and the large outlet for VTEC activation.

thanks for the clear up craig, I thing we were all just using different terms and not really speaking the same language. if the remote thing is designed for use with an oil cooler you can't just block off one outlet because that's where the engine's oil goes. if the fitting was for use with an oil cooler the system that has been described that can be blocked off on one fitting will be completely retarded because the oil cooler will only be used by some of the oil and not the oil that's going to the engine which equals gay.

Re:USING OIL COOLER SANDWICH AS OIL FEED?
 

doesn't the engine get its oil from the oil pan? which is where the turbo will be returning the oil to? yes blocking the "IN" side of it is what i would be doing. its not like the engine will ONLY get its oil from the IN side of the sandwich? so its only supply to the engine would be from the in side after it has ran through an oil cooler? how bout if i do this? run an oil cooler, dont plug it off, i'll use the IN and OUT side, the OUT side will go to my ghetto oil cooler off an old volvo, then back around to the IN side of the "sandwich", then somewhere on the OUTline thats going to the oil cooler i'll add in a little "T" fitting and use that as my oil feed? is that possible?

Just get turner toys for the feed line. Its much easier. Use the golden eagle for the cooler, less ---- to splice and run.

the engine doesn't just magically grap the oil from the pan, the pump picks it up from the pan, sends it to the oil filter and then into the engine, if you blocked off the fitting going back into the adapter for use with an oil cooler your engine would get no oil, but the pan would be doing just great.

Re:USING OIL COOLER SANDWICH AS OIL FEED?
 

the golden eagle leaves the oil filter functioning exactly how it normally would, and taps off of the oil that has already gone through the filter and is on its way into the motor, it does not however redirect this oil, it just taps off of it. here, i'll make you a kyle diagram....
