Thanks! Hmm, looks like the drain line is being used as in, looking at the pump assembly. Is that right?

can you give a link to where you got that inline pump and filter? Seems like a fuel pump, works good with the oil too?

If the engine oil is contaminated enough to damage the SC, then I think the SC would be the least of ones worries.

Yes, turbos are a bit different than a centrifugal SC, but a turbo's oil cooling requirements are considerably greater.

I don't see any reason, if given the choice, to go V3 instead of V2 for a heavily track-driven car.

1. Normal engine particulate could damage the gear side of the SC, now imagine... If the engine breaks the SC goes with it due particulate (mmmmm)
2. Correct turbo need more cooling capacity and work way hotter than SC (but there are some other differences)...
3. You could do the conversion to the V2 and use my setup OR you could keep the V3 well cooled and as soon it fails go to the V2.
4. Anyway is you car and your money, feel free to do what ever you consider is better, but keep in mind that I'm not selling anything so no hidden agenda here.

I was trying to contact vortech to get the parts for the bigger turbine (the one with 1150 CFM and 22 psi, but apparently they prefer that we send the unit...
That and the 2.88" would validate my set up... No luck
