Search didnt come up with anything...unless I missed it at which my bad. Anyway my question is as follows. I got the greddy oil block adapter from Z1auto to mount my STRI oil pressure gauge sensor to. It has 3 ports so my questions is can I run the oil feels for the turbos off of these 2 extra ports and get rid of the stupid greddy daisy chain that is with the TT kit? Any feed back is much appreciated. Thanks

 

yup thats fine

 

will there be pressure at those ports?Thos ports should be at the same pressure as the oil reservoir since they are at the discharge of the filter.

 

obviously if he's mounting a oil pressure gauge...

 

yeah after looking through the FSM it would appear that those ports should be under normal pressure. I would definitely want to monitor the pressure if I was using those ports.

Also those are very tight spots to put lines/fittings considering bend radius.

heres what I am doing for mine:


I hated the idea of all those fittings greddy supplies, so many connections to have leaks.

 

I would not suggest this at all

the ports are too small IMHO and space is very limited. The feed and return should be done at the pan, or via an oil pan spacer (AAM's is a nice piece which we've used many times)

 

^ he is talking about the oil feed, not the return. It will be fine I made my own and its been fine for years.

 

looks good! how did you drill that lil metal ball out?

 

Quamen did it. He said it was a PITA though. I like that spot. I believe Charles from CJM did it first, check his engine build thread.

 

ya, those guys have both said its a huge PITA, thats why I was wondering if you had some sorta trick, since only a few people have ever done it

thanks!
