    On the tank glad you meantioned that didn't think about it. Wouldn't be hard to add in and I was gonna do an oil pressure gauge but didn't think about a temp gauge. I'm still not sure which way I'm going to go. People run from the front to the rear with no problems I just am nervous about oil lines traveling that far. We will see when time gets closer.

    Like I say just trying to fix a few small items before the shootout and I can buy parts week after next but I won't have time to let the orders come in
    If you have subframe connectors, you could run the lines up along those. But the plus side of the way you're thinking, if something happens, you only lose oil to the turbo.

    Exactly and makes oil changes easier I can keep really fresh oil in the turbo to help it live longer. And do regular oil changes in the engine.

    They're junk dude, I was under the car tonight and at least one of the pipes is almost all the way rotted through.
