feed & return oil feed
Turbo Mini Forums

I'm doing a turbo conversion, what is a good place for oil feed and return on the turbo, for feed i was looking tee off the oil filter to block pipe or the oil pressure switch.
for the return at the mechanical fuel pump blank or the dizzy blank (as the car is running megajolt)

Oil feed usually tees off the oil pressure switch. And if your turbo is being mounted at the back of the engine, just use the hole in the back of the block where the mechanical fuel pump used to be.

cheers for quick reply

the turbo will be clutch mounted you see

Ah ok, I'd return the oil back through the breather on the transfer housing.

Cheers matty that's cool of you :)

I am just converting my spi to turbo you see and learning lots of things on the way

what engine you running?

I was just thinking......... for the return could I use the dizzy hole to feed back into, as I may use it if the transfer breather hole is hard to get to when the turbo is on clutch housing.

would this be OK for a return?

yep back into the dizzy will be fine as long as you can get the pipework to fit ok.

im doing the same thing, into the dizzy cap, the oil drain on mine is to low for the transfer, theres some photos some where of it.... if not, i'll get some at the weekend.

pop some pics up of your progress :)

Im using mine with no problems, but I have also added extra breathers. The mechanical fuel pump location is a good place to run a pipe off into a catch tank.
