Oil return lines.

[1Relentless87]

Is there any other way to return the oil besides punching a hole in the oil pan?

I drilled the block on mine.

Get an oil filter relocator kit and T into those lines.

 

[1Relentless87]

Will there be any backup issues and can I use for both oil feed and return?

 

[Bishop92t]

I assume you're trying to find an oil supply for a turbo transplant, in which case tapping into an oil filter relocation kit should work.

I think he means the big drain hose on the turbo.

 

[Bishop92t]

It will work for supply and return.

 

[IJ.]

Do you mean running the Drain from the Turbo into one of the pressure lines for a filter relocation kit?

 

[Bishop92t]

No. Oil filter (and by correlation the relocation kit) is going to have a feed and a return.

Thanx for the info and do you know who makes a relocation kit for the mk3?

 

[1Relentless87]

With this mod do I still have to buy the oil feed and return line kit sold by 935 motorsports for my conversion?

 

[Bishop92t]

You can buy any of the Permacool kits as they include the correct adapter to fit. Our oil filter thread is pretty common so it shouldn't be hard to find something.

As for the 935 kit, by their description I'd say it's probably useless to you. If they had a pic I could be more certain.

I think people are missing the question here:

Is there any other way to *return* the oil besides punching a hole in the oil pan?

I'm guessing we're talking about the oil return from a turbocharger. If so, no way can you splice it into a "filter relocation kit" or your turbo seals will leak like a bitch.

The outlet of a turbo has to be free draining with no pressure, and as large as you can fit. The oil pan is your best bet.
