Default Del sol Turbo

*Tried a seach and couldnt find anything I needed.*

My friend just dropped a turbo on his 93 delsol. (I know its kinda pointless, but whatever.) The question I have is where should he hook up the oil line for the turbo? The motor is a D15 that came stock in the 1993 Delsol S. Thanks for the help.

Iono much about turbo setups so I'm not sure if that's the oil feed line or the oil return line, pretty sure the return line goes to the pan, though I don't know enough to tell you anything definite.

Reason why I'm posting though is to simply make a statement on yours regarding "I know its kinda pointless, but whatever." - Turbo is the only way to make a 4cyl fast, cheaply. You'd be surprised what kind of Honda motors are putting out 2, 3, 400 whp on a turbo build.

It costs a lot more to build it w/o one. Not to mention if you go easy on it w/ light boost you'll get better gas mileage.

Not as useless as one might think is all I'm saying.

Take off the oil pressure sensor and use that. If you guys cant figure that out then take it to a shop.

I wasnt knocking turboed D's, however its a bone stock D15 its not gonna make that much power without blowing up. I myself am an all motor guy (check out my all motor thread), but I do know the potential of a turboed honda.

Thats what I told him and it is for the oil feed line. He said he cant find the oil pressure sensor. I havent even looked at it or researched it yet. isnt it to the left of the oil filter if you looking at the back of the motor?
