Default sandwich adapters and oil return line

After running some searches, I see that some of you guys are using a sandwich/block adapter (GE, AC, or Greddy) for your oil feed. Anyone use one of the adapter ports for the return line too?

Thanks, bro. Some folks run an oil cooler off the GE, if I remember. Seems like if you can do that, maybe you could run the turbo return to it too.
Anyone try this?

when they say oil cooler, they mean the stock oil coolers that came on some hondas. Its like another sammich with water running through it, not the traditional fin type;

no you cannot use the sandwhich adapter for oil return line. You need a huge return line compared to feed line, feed line should be -3 an, return line should be like -10 an and flow directly down into your oilpan.

Exactly also the return line is a gravity feed line.

Returning low pressure oil to a pressurized oil source would be tough. And like stated before the return needs to be much larger than a sandwich adapter could give.

10AN or 12AN to the oil pan
