Do more reading. You will get faster. My problem read too fast and have to reread to get the fine points. Too speed reading in school. Wish I hadn't. Can't enjoy a book anymore I get the story. But miss the fine points.

WTF is going on in here? This is getting overly complicated....

Turbo's oiling system is very simple. Oil gets fed in at pressure, then uses gravity to drain. Run a line right into the oil pan. Drill and tap the pan. Simple, right?

Dont worry about coolant. My SC50 isnt coolant fed. You just have to remember to let it idle for a minute, before you shut it down after you run it hard.

oil cooler is a good idea, my oil never took very long to get really black. all you have to do is put a T on the oil pressure sensor on the drivers side back of the cylinder head and run your line from there. the drain should be the hardest part.

There isnt any need for a cooler if you allow it to idle down for a few minutes. Turbo guys call the "charring" of the oil Coking.

Keep the oil changed, and take care of the car, and you dont *need* an oil cooler. It is a good idea. Just use a sandwich style cooler that goes where you oil filter does. DO NOT put a cooler in line with the turbo. The drain needs to be as free flowing as possible, and you want no pressure drop on the oil feed.

The pressure is whatever your oil pressure is. If you make 30psi of oil pressure, youll see 30+ at the turbo. Also keep in mind that youre oil pressure generally increases as your RPMs increase.

As long as you take care of the car, and you let it idle for a few minutes after you beat on it, itll be fine with no coolant lines.
