im geting a set of hot pipes to swap to a trick front mount. I know a lot of guys must have done this exact swap. Can I still run the sts oil lines w/out the pump if i shorten them or would i necessarily have to tap the pan?

 

about a 5ft -3 feed line for oil supply. Are you using the "sts" oil cap for the return? You will need to tap the oil pan above the oil level for the oil to velocity feed back into the pan from the front mounted turbo.

 

Yes you will need to tap the pan. Its easy to do you just need a 3/8 tap and drill. can be done on the vehicle. heres a pic we did on an 08..
We can supply you a 5' -3 line with the pipes.

 

i understand now. that should be real easy. i dont have my old stock parts. would i need any of them? i think the oil cap is the only thing.
