i know its no golden eagle, but its still the same concept...is this actually better than {tapping the back of the block}? would the pressure change and harm more then help?

You will still need to tap your oil pan for the return line.

As i understand it, those sandwich adapters pull oil before it reaches the filter, do you want unfiltered oil lube'n your turbo? I know i don't. Mainly for oil coolers, that end up returning the oil to the sandwich to get filtered.

I have used the "T" for the past year...the only problem I had is when I used a brazz nipple...it broke off one night in town Man was that fun to fix in a dark parking lot!!!

Does anyone know if that peice would work for an oil cooler?

my zc came with a factory oil cooler...so how is this different than the GE one that filters oil 1st? the GE was "made" for ls/vtec so you dont have to T the back of the block...
