I just like to know how you guys have fitted your feed pipes (water and oil) for you turbocharger on your SR20DE?

Did you use a "sandwich" adapter on your oil filter or is there another better solution for the oil feed pipe?

Thx... ;)

PS:I'm trying to have all the info I need about turbocharging my P11 before starting my project...when my GTIR is finished... =)

Tee off from the oil pressure switch (1/8 BSPTaper) for your feed. Drill the block for return. Use the heater lines for water feed/return and "Search for Info" theres plenty around

Drill the block for the oil return??????????You mean drill the oil pan I guess?

BTW,where is located the pressure switch?Same place as the SR20DET engine?

no, i do mean drill the block, cos the oil pan is too low, and will be submersed. The oil pressure switch is on the rear of the oil cooler housing.

For the oil return, drill the boss in the block right where the DET oil return goes.

For the oil supply, put a tee on the oil pressure sending unit port.

For water, I used the feed for the throttle body.
