I know that the pump has to be plumbed to the return side(the pump is placed below the return, traditionally turbo's are placed on top of the engine so as to allow gravity to drain the oil back to the engine) With a system I want to use, like the STS system, if the oil is not "sucked through" the turbo, the oil will be sucked through the seals and inhaled into the engine (Good for a 2 stroke I guess). Just curious if anybody has a setup like this in place already, and how it's worked for them. Also the Paxta-Map fueler is a fuel enrichment system designed to be used with a paxton centrifical supercharger. It has the hat that fits over the throttle body, that has auxillary fuel injectors already installed. It also increases voltage to the stock pump to compensate for the extra injectors. Kenne belle, MSD, Vortech all have similar fuel controllers, and I was also considering a "Split Second" controll unit, as it to comes application specific.
Like I said, any help I can get would be helpful, I have a basic idea of how to design the system, but am always open to knowledge.

is the oil still pressure fed to the turbo? or is it from the sump?
thanks for the info, i might need to get one of these fuel controllers.

Oil pressure is fed from the engine, Usually you can install a spacer where the oil filter goes so you can run a high pressure line to the turbo. Other engines have spots in the block or head where you can remove a plug or drill and tap a hole so you can also access a pressureized oil port.

Get everything set up. Piping hoses and all electronics hooked up and then trailer it to a tuner w/dyno.

I'm sure there are some Tuners in Detroit, (I'm across the border in Windsor). Good idea, maybe I'll look them up, see if they have any inputs. It was also suggested that I step up to 36lb injectors as well. i already have an Aeromotive 1000 pump that I can plumb in line. Thing is with the 36's it'll be too fat off boost. We have the same emissions standards as California.(put it on a chassis dyno every 2 years, and get a reading from the tailpipe). I'll check around for any tuners in my area. Just waiting for the weather to warm up so I can start working out in the shop and get the truck off blocks.
