Hi Guys,

Me again is there any one on this site or know of any one who can make a copy of the DRD under deck turbo header?

New, Under the deck lid turbo header. Built here in the usa, 1 1/2 exhaust tubes, T3 turbo flange. Waste gate is set up for no boost creep.

Hi

Im sure Westi could do it, that man is a magician.

What would you do for oil an return from the turbo, an electric pump?

yeah if you can track down Ian Swinkles posts from ages ago you will find he had oil return issues even with the CB hideaway turbo headers..........eventually moving the flange, then using a pump, until finally building himself a couple of custom headers instead

Hi

I had oil return issues with my WBX and my turbo was mounted very high, they need a very high & straight fall to avoid flooding the bearings.

I think CBs solution is to really limit the pressures oil flow going to turbo, which can have its own issues.

This really depends on what you want to use it for and how much time and money you have.

Most things are achieveable if you have the time and money and desire to see it through. Don't give up yet. Perfect example is Ian Swinkles.
