Bringing this one back from the dead here.
This weekend I"m going to get the oil to the turbo. I've made a change and I'm going to give the turbo it's own oil supply. I'm planning on using a 5 gallon air compressor tank (new) and weld in some bungs to fill and for the feed and return line. The air pig will be mounted inside my toolbox. I'll use 1 Turbowerx Pump to feed the turbo oil under pressure, and one another one to scavenge the oil back to the Air Pig (now an Oil Pig.
)
I've got the method to control oil pressure to the turbo. My questions I could use some help with are the following:
1. I'm thinking a 5 gallon reservoir is more than enough, right?
2. This method would give the turbo a constant pressure of oil to it, regardless of RPM in the turbo (or engine RPM) If I set my oil pressure @ say 40psi constant, will this be fine for the turbo, and not damage it??
Next question & topic:
I've been reading up on the evac method of getting rid of blowby (i.e. no more CDR) I get that it uses a Venturi effect to expell the gases via the exhaust. My actual post turbo exhaust pipe will only be about 20" long. If I weld in a bung for the blowby tube, will that short of a exhaust section be long enough to create a Venturi effect?
Big Thanks to Towcat for hooking me up with a Y Pipe to get this project completed. It should be here in anyday now.
