You have to tap into the oil pan. Make sure to do it higher up on the oil pan. I would go no less than 1/2" ID hose for the oil return.

Are you talking about the oil sending or return? The oil sending unit is right next to the oil filter. You'll have to T into it and run a rather small line to the turbo. I think my line wasn't any larger than 12mm. Oil return on my car is 3/8".

I think he is talking oil feed. And you should use a T fitting at the oil sender on the right side of the block. The line? Usually -3AN will do.

if you were going to T that feed line again into 2 say, -3AN lines to the turbos, what size line would you use off the block?

^^^ just run two seperate -3 lines off the block. i can make you a nice aluminum piece that will allow you to run two seperate feed lines, the sender unit(even thought its useless), and an oil pressure gauge. let me know, i can send it to you for 25 shipped and itll be polished. also fellas, i sure hope the fitting you screw directly into the block is BSPT and NOT NPT.

This is very important...I forgot the adapter when I first installed the T in my oil pressure sender and screwed NPT into a BSPT hole. Well, that didn't work out so well, it snapped off, I had to buy some extractors, found it only had 4 threads into it. Luckily for me when I got the adapter it screwed in wonderfully, the threads weren't too screwed up from my little bit of genius work

umm... is there a possibility for such a piece to have output for the following: stock oil pressure sensor, a REAL (add on) oil pressure sensor, oil temp sensor, and oil feed for turbo? So like 4 outputs coming out of that one fitting? If not, how about just three, if need be I'll just not use the stock pressure sensor (it doesn't do anything anyway)?

^^^ i got exactly what youre looking for. both of you go check the parts section now for a thread created by me with the tittle saying FS:vacuum manifolds. itll do just the job. and i can make shorter ones with less ports if thats what you desire. whatever pops in your head let me know and most likely i can make it.

I wonder if that thing is too long to tack onto the stock oil pressure hole... prolly not. Could one make a bracket for it so it's mounted to the block? (I don't want it to break off) I'm tryin to remember what things looked like on that side....

if i cut it to where theres only 3 on the side and the one port on the end it should fit. or you can mount to the frame rail and run a hose from the stock sender unit to the distribution block i make. if it didnt fit but i think it will. the ones i have pictured are 4'' long.
