Hi Guys
Upgrading to a V2 from a self contained V3.
I am concerned about drilling the block for the oil feed, does anyone here know if it is possible to get the feed from this sump:

It has oil return line ports but i assume it's not possible to run the feed from there?

Does anyone have any pics of their V2 setup? - wanted this to be as painless as possible.

 

You wouldnt be able to feed from an oil pan. Most FI systems use the OEM oil pressure sensor port for oil feed.


A few alternatives:
There is a oil feed near the OEM pressure port that you could use
You could use an oil sandwich plate and some sandwich plates have extra ports you could feed off of
or similarly you could us a oil filter relocation kit and supply oil from that.

 

There's a plug on an oil feed port just above the stock cooler thing. It's the same thread as the EFR turbo's oil feeds which I think are a BSPP. I verified this and moved my feed here as unlike the pressure sender port, it's post oil filter:

 

Optimal place to take oil if you ask me and it's where I source mine.

I think people dont put enough emphasis on how important it is to use filtered oil for your turbo/supercharger...

 

Pic of your setup? Did you use a T-piece from oem oil pressure sensor location?

 

I used an oil filter sandwich plate for mine, but I knew I could go off the oil pressure port I would of done that in the first place.
