there's the filter adapter... not cheap though. i'm assuming you spend that much, r.barn?

Yeah, they aint cheap. Worth the money in the long run if you do your own
oil changes though.

I'm going to use oil scavenge pump like pictured, just in a different location.
but same pump. My tuner uses it on their in house S197 TT kit, with good results.
Also bought "oil resctrictors" made special for low mount turbo installs that cut
back how much oil the turbos get.

cool cool. sounds like they have it all worked out pretty good. and kinda off topic, but have they ever had a problem with the o2's or the wide band mounted like that? (angled down slightly moisture problem or being that close to the turbos? or have they not really been installed and running for quite a few miles yet? once again sorry for goin off topice with that but its outta constructive curiousity (is that a possible phrase? )

Making some install progress.

We are not going to be able to "low mount" the turbos.
Just not enough room to route the downpipe and clear swaybar.

Going to mount them up in the front corners as originally planned
