I got a question about the oil system.

The oil return goes into the oil pan right?

Where does the oil feed go to?

Yep it drains to the pan and usually the oil feed is T'd into the oil pressure spot on the block.

We need to start a thread for mine. Rio and I started my turbo fabrication yesterday. Got the entire hot side done. I'll see if he will post some pics.

Rio posted alot of pics on here so you should have plenty of ideas. They should be in this thread or search for his other turbo thread.

I think he was just using it as a general term for the guys that make their own kits at home......

It seems most people think DIY means junkyard. Personally now that I am in this project myself I can't imagine using rigged junkyard crap on my car.

Rio has posted TONS of pics. Just search. There should be a bunch in this thread otherwise he has another turbo thread with lots of them.

It dynoed around 500rwhp.

Now we are trying to finish mine. Same setup, but with a MP 70mm.
