Default oil pump

Does anyone know where to get a oil pump for a rear mount turbo like the sts kit has and how much psi is needed for this?

Get it from one of STS's dealers or go here http://www.pegasusautoracing.com/pro....asp?RecId=156 The pressure is adjustable. I don't remember what mine was set at. I'll have to look into it and see.

Where are you planning to run your oil return? If you're returning to the filler cap you will need the pump. If your turbo is level or above the oil pan you can just tap the pan and not need the pump.

You will probably need one. Try locating one of the dealers and give them a buzz. They should sell you one. I'll see if i can find you a contact. There was a guy out of texas i was getting parts from.

On a stock 4.7L for a daily drive I would go with a Turbonetic 60-1 with a .68AR You will get hardly any turbo lag. Do you have the Magnum or HO 4.7? HO is a higher compression motor so you won't be able to put too much boost to it as a Magnum.
