Turbos generate a lot of heat in the oil... if you do a separate oil system, it would need to be a good volume and have a good cooler... using the engine oil gives you the volume.

Thinking on my earlier sandwich plate post, the original Moroso suggestion would be good if it had a tapping on the side.
You will likely need to cool the oil.

I think I'm just going to run a sandwich plate then a electric motor for the return line and dump it back in the valve covers .... Now for piping it up to the engine bay could I use just like 3" exhaust pipe till I get up to the engine bay ??? Or do I have to use turbo piping ... And what is the shroud that people use for on top of the TB for he turbo
