I think I have the same exhaust kit on my 5.3 turbo 240sx, I'm worried about the oil return, I put mine in the front gto oil pan top, but there isn't much room too drain. How did urs end up?

**blackmagicturbo** · 04-07-2011, 07:48 AM

^^^ I now what you mean ,, I actually ran my drain back into my drain plug hole ... I have done this on a couple of other cars that have turbos that run even with the oil pan rail ..

How does that work without blowing the seals in the turbo? Most run the return as high in the pan as possible otherwise the oil is going to back up in the turbo and start smoking which is wat I'm worried about. The way you have it ran seems like its always going to have pressure on the line and no were for the oil to go?

You can help evacuate it with the amount of suction that the oil pump creates when you start the engine,, theres is probably only a couple of quarts that are left in the pan, allowing the oil to drain back even tho its lower than the oil line in the pan or something like that lol. im not a physics major but i have used this on previous cars and its worked fine ..its actually more convenient when i build turbo kits for some cars cause i dont have to tap the pan for a drain..

Greddy uses it on there Acura rsx kits and thats a huge company that produces thousands of turbo kits ..
