one important point. Oil return from turbo should have sufficient dia (.5") to get the oil out to the pan. Theory is oil should get out faster than it enters the turbo. Typically nylon rubber hose is used for oil return. Care should be taken that rubber hose is not bent. IF there is need for a bend, better choose a hose which has a natural bend. Put the oil return line to the top most position on the pan so that oil gets cleared out. If the oil not cleared from the hose, oil will get clogged and turbo may smoke.
