As for oil return the SR20 has a nice boss on the block ready to be drilled and tapped for that...It is lotsa work doing it...but has to be done. Supply? You can tee off the backside of the engine where the stock oil PSI sender is with a -3 line routed over to the top of the turbo. I 2nd Johns recomendation of Maximum Boost...its a very basic book but is helpful to the novice turbo person.

I have not yet read that book but ill put it on my list!Tein suspension and 17" (or 18") wheels will be put on ASAP,along with the 3" catback.I am planning on holding off on the brakes as long as I can.What Clutch should I get.I had forgot that I would need that.LOL Im sure that it wouldn't have taken me long to remember with a 300whp FWD.What about the fuel rail and Engine Management?

BTW Ive got plenty of clean undies!;)
