It's just a drain. It will work even if you put it in at the very bottom of the pan.

I think hes talking about the turbo hanging to low to have a good gravity drain towards the oil pan . And no you cannot put the drain in the bottom of the pan. It will back up and the turbo will smoke cause its cooking the oil thats not good.

that's not true. It's a myth, just like the "need" for backpressure.

Does your toilet back up due to the design? No.

You can put a tube in at the bottom of the pan, and the oil level in the tube will be the same elevation as the oil in the pan. It's simple physics. The tube will not fill up because it's put at the bottom of the pan.

Just like in your toilet...the water level in the trap will be the same as in your bowl...unless the trap stops up on the other side. Also, consider the trap under your sink. Doesn't the water level stay the same on each side of it?

He just needs to make sure that the turbo is above the oil level in the pan. The amount is irrelevant, as gravity has the same force at one foot as it does at two.

engloid is correct about the oil return. Stock VWs have the oil return line at the very bottom of the pan with no problems at all.

any of the 1.8t vws have the oil return line at the bottom of the pan. some of the newer 1.8ts 2004 and up have an upper and lower pan so the oil return in half way up due to the lower pan.
