Default How does my oil drain look? Pics

I have a d series with a Neukin ramhorn manifold and a gt30r. Will this oil drain work? Or is it to level for it to drain back? There is a 90 deg coming off the turbo using -10 ss line to a staight -10 on the pan.
Any opinions, ideas, options welcome.. Thanks

You sure about that? with that 90 degree Right off the flange? going almost HORIZONTAL to the pan? This looks like the oil would back RIGHT UP into the flange and out of the exhaust housing from the pressure.

I would definately modify this. Sorry to be the dissenter.

personally i would at least run a 45 off the turbo to the straight on the pan. if at all possible i would put the bung on the pan as close to the crank pulley as possible to have a longer drain to prevent oil backup into the turbo. dont go lower on the pan as that will also restrict flow
