Water line from K20A2/Z3 water pump --> Turbo Water Feed
Water line from Turbo back to block --> Turbo Water Return
Oil line from Jackson Racing Oil Cooler --> Turbo Oil Feed
Oil line from Turbo back to Greddy Sandwich plate --> Turbo Oil Return

The Greddy oil sandwich plate will be the feed for the turbo and the feed to the Jackson Racing Oil Cooler. It has two feeds and two returns, so they will be operating in parallel and not in series. Feeds could be used for anything from an oil cooler, to oil sensors for gauges, or for a turbo feed. I will be using the ports for all of those. On the return side, one port will be used for the return for the oil cooler. I could have used the other port for the oil return for the turbo, but I’m using the 2NRS tensioner cover instead. I doubt it will matter, but the sandwich plate is already dealing with returning oil from the cooler and from the filter, and the 2NRS cover is slightly lower that the plate, and it drains into the timing cover, which is unlikely to ever result in oil coming back up the oil return on corners or draining poorly. Like I said, it may not matter, and it isn’t as clean looking, but that’s what I am doing.
