not much room at all. the only way i can make room is run twins so i wont have a crossover. the reason for lower mount is to keep all accs.

what if you just tap in to the oil pan on the passenger side above the oil line. That way, it would not have to pump against gravity up to the valve cover. wouldn't that help the pump keep up?

Why not have a catch can to serve as the dedicated oiling system for the turbo? Gravity feed to the turbo out of the bottom then the pump to run the oil from the turbo back to the top of the can? That way the motor would be isolated from the turbo and potential pump failure. Just seems fairly simple to me, would that not work?

Are they making a comeback?
Interesting engineering, wonder how far it will go and into which markets?
