Morning all, I have two questions!

1 - As I intend to use a remote oil filter (for space reasons), am I correct in saying that the filter should be mounted at the same height as it is now, or lower, so as not to create oil starvation on start-up? (i.e. the filter and supply hose would always be full rather than drain back if the filter were to be mounted heigher)

2 - Would it be feasible to use a hose like the one below as an oil return on the turbo? I found a few at work and thought it may be a usable solution, but it may be too restrictive (it is only around 10mm OD on the braided section)? It is fitted standard to a 2.0 Diesel with a VNT so I would think it should be sufficient on a T2/GT17?




Thanks!
