Default First time boosting....

well im getting pipes, i have the turbo manifold ready, a T3 Turbo, wastegate, BOV, FMIC...and I dont think i need an FMU because i read that i can just chip my P75 ECU to run onBoost.. i have a LS motor. anyways, what else do i needed, and my question is that, my car used to be boosted before i bought my car from my cousin. When swapping in my Port and polished head, we changed the oil and my mechanic/friend told me that the oil lines were different... so does this mean i need a Oil Return line, or would it still be there since it was boosted?? thanks hT for any help

the oil return line would not still be there... it goes from the turbo to the oil pan. so if he took the turbo off, guess what... the oil return went with it. you need to learn A LOT MORE before you turbo your car. or take it to a professional to do for you.
