Do you have any horizontal views of the oil drain? To me it looks like it may be a little less than ideal since it loops around as much as it does. The best bet is short, simple and always downward.

I wanted to go with the shortest oil drain as possible but the AN fitting from B&R Fitting made it impossible to do, so i looped it away from the down pipe. It's working very well so far. Here all the pics i have of it....



It might be hard to see, but it's all on a down slope angle...no problem at all!

Dope build...its tight.....lol...thats what i call straight piped..lol......

one thing, u drove the car N/A on forged low compression vitara pistons while u got ur turbo setup if i read correctly....i had read somehwere here you couldnt do that...cuz i wanted to do that....

since you've done it....i suppose it would be fine for me to run forged low compression pistons/rods on a b20 vtec? this is because i cant wait to put my engine in...but i still need alot of the turbo accesories.

It's loud, but sounds good when the turbo spool.

I ran the car to break it in n/a form at it ran fine. It just lacked power but had no other problem. I ran it for like 800 mile, so everything good so far..

Im a retard? Lol who said anything about not driving around without license plates? What a moron. He has pictures of his car on h-t with the license plate numbers on it with the mods done not a smart idea. Everyone knows on this site not to post that obviously you are a retard or you wouldn’t post a ridiculous comment as to riding around w/o license.
