There is no way that will work right. The oil line and drain issue alone makes no sense. Having the turbo that far away from the motor will make for horrible lag if it will spool at all. I hear the BOV so its doing something but when I think about the length of the intake piping the lag issue gets even worse. Thats just nuts.

man I have seen stock z28's have problems with traction and this guy barely even squeeled tires. And there is no way the oil return could have worked in that position.

no ------- way he was pushing more then 1 psi.. you guys are all right. he shouldnt have had ANY traction in 1st and 2nd. My g/fs uncle has a 455 (not stock, heh) and he can burn em through all gears of the turbo 400. thats ----.
