I was doing some reading and came across that a lot of people recommend changing the stock oil pump after deleting dod to avoid pumping the pan dry? From what Ive read the stock oil pump is a high volume pump... I was all set to order a standard volume/high pressure pump for the weekend but started thinking about it more is it possible the stock dod pump would be better for a turbo application.... any input would be appreciated... stock? aftermarket high volume? high pressure? Thanks in advance... (im sure im over thinking this...)

Hey thanks a lot man! Slowly but surely! I'm planning on putting the wg just before the turbo in the middle of the two pipes coming together and then pipe it into the down pipe from there.

Pumping a pan dry.
Add more oil to base level if that happens.

Wont stock flex fuel injectors work for normal pump gas? Since the injectors are bigger because of E85. I am figuring out how to turbo my 04 yukon. Looks great!! Keep updates coming!

Even my non flex fuel injectors are supporting 6PSI up to 6000RPM just nothing over
And like Choda said the stock Flex pumps are great.
