My build has the turbo placed about where the stock airbox would be.Would anyone with a similar setup care to share pictures with me of where they have the turbo drain ****** mounted on there oil pan?
Also im wondering if I should be running an oil restrictor for the oil feed line? the turbo is a Turbonetics 60-1 ball bearing.I have heard that the SHO engine may not make enough oil pressure to make one necessary.

I'm sure you don't need one. My sho barely makes 10 psi at idle. I'm pretty sure most people are putting their drain just anywhere in the front. I can take a pic as soon as I get mine in for you.



When are you planning to do your install?

off topic as all get out, but next time i find myself in the DC/baltimore area i'm totally taking a trip over to look at your car.

i'm very interested in your nitrous set up and possibly forced induction next year.

No oil restrictor here, I dont seem to have any pictures of my return setup but it runs from the turbo ( airbox area) down to front side of the oil pan above the oil line in the pan. I dont seem to have any pics but since im running tims old setup maybe he has some pics. Here are some pics of my setup.
