where did you hook your oil sender line to on the block?

 

i have heard some people getting their oil supply line from the vtec solenoid so i would imagine that you could run the sending line to there.

 

I just T'd mine off the back.. makes a huge cluster of T's on the backof the block. I am going to run a line from the block to the T's to relieve the pressure off the block. I am still thinkin about the Z10 oil pump adapter.

Yeap thats where I ran mine, don't use the vtec sender, you won't get enough oil flow for the turbo.

where would you find the fitting to do that at the bottom of the block? any part #?

 

I think it is 1/8" BPT. Not sure though. But you will need one that is a tee....go to a hydrolic pump store, or a plumbing supply store

 

Awesome, I have tried to seach everywhere for hybrids w/ turbos for this exact question. Because the same works for a lsvtec. I was wondering if it was too much of a strain there, if the pressure would still be alright.

Thanks for posting

 

I dont think the strain is too much due to pressure, when i mean strain i ment strain on the threads for havin all this extra weight hanging out of them with all the hoses and such. And the movement. I have been using it for quite a while and haven't had a problem yet. It doesn't even leak.

in that case, wouldn't the VTEC solenoid be a suitable place for oil tap? also the oil will have to travel less, and wouldn't have to be split off in so many different directions. i've been running it from the VTEC solenoid for 5-6 months now.. no problem.
