turbo oil line, Questions!!, I had 1 turbo, now I have 2!!

[loosecannon]

Hi,

I am putting 2 turbos on a VG30DET ( as in other thread), I would like to know if I can put a t-piece in the the oil supply line ( where it use to feed one turbo) and just supply both the turbos from there, or do I have to plumb it in somewhere else??, also can I do the same with the water cooling on the turbos??

Thanks in advance

Dave

you can but it would be better to have two seperate lines off the sump

Thanks for your reply,

I'll have a look at the engine, and see if I can tap in to the other side to set up an oil feed line

it would be better to take off the sump and drill a new plug, as you dont want to get plastic/metal in your engine

I think maximum must be talking about the return as oil feed sure as hell doesn't come from the sump ( for a start there's no pressure).

Yes, you can tee off the oil and water feeds but you probablywill need to have separate oil returns to the sump, the straighter the better. If the oil cant get away you get smokey turbo syndrome.
