I know someone who turbocharged a quad with a leaf blower. It actually worked pretty well, eventually blew the motor lol

The oil pump is what will pull the oil out of the turbo and push it through the line to return back to the motor, without it, the oil will not flow back to the motor, this is a VERY special pump to do this (part of the STS secret). The 2 additional injectors will feed off of a "T" in between the main fuel rail and the feed from the tank. You will need to control these two injectors as to when the come on (under boost, and at what PWM rate (Pulse Width Modulated) meaning in laymans terms how much fuel flow at three axis points, (X) RPM and (Y) Load vs (Z) Psi of boost, the "controller" will allow you to "dial in" your fuel flow to these two injectors when the truck sees boost.

Around here, I will be your turbo god LOL. I hold a few world records for turbocharged vehicles.. Yes no joke..

I have built several aux. inj. controlled vehicles, and it is the best solution for those who do not have the ability to get a QUALIFIED tuner on the dyno. 3d mappable aux. injector controllers are easy to use if you understand how to read, and can grasp A/F ratio concepts.

I have built and still build 1400+hp turbocharged vehicles, all the way up to Top Alcohol funny cars. So the Yikes comment? Yeah, YIKES!! when I fire up the KB 481 LOL!
