question #1: i have a log style mani. i want to mount my t3/t4 turbo with the hot side on the drivers side. would it matter? unless the oil feed/return lines are directional i dont see it a big deal. the reason i ask is because this thing will definately not fit the other way without clocking it(and it still looks really sketchy if i did).
question #2: i want to do an oil return/feed setup and i was wondering if someone could give me a complete parts list with sizes and such, and where to buy em. i was thinking lowes since i have gift card. i would prefer a non welded return-to-oil-pan set up.

ok... answer to question 1...
Your best bet is hotside on PASSENGERS side... not saying its not possible the other way, but fabricating a downpipe is a pain, and running piping back around from the intercooler SUCKS also...
answer to #2....
search for Stan @ fast-turbo.com
he has oil line kits that are COMPLETE for any specific application and his customer service is A1... no questions asked i would go to him again for another oil line kit...
