No the standard oil pump is fine
If your using a sandwhich plate it should be pretty self explanatory.. also have you considered a remote filter setup Emma's had this done on either her Cinq iirc

I know you like to collect those pics so you and K can look at them all dewy eyed
And a visit also means you get to see the 1.4 16V Sei Abarth and a Lancia integrale EVO1 and an Ignis Sport

another quick question, on the turbo elbow, where abouts on the flange plate (that mates to the turbo exhaust side) does the hole need to be cut for the elbow to be joined? and what size hole?
thanks again
Lenny
thanks again
Lenny
my exhaust side has a 1.5" pipe on it
as for pics of the engine and things look on my thread in sei/styling>my seicento project follow it though and look at the pictures itll have pics of everything.

got the turbo exhaust flange made today, need to drill the exhaust pipe hole in it and attach the pipe next, 1.5" pipe i guess? any ideas where I can get the elbow to come off of the flange? To make this sort of thing https://www.fiatforum.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=30904&d=1185470882
After this will be time for oil lines to be ran, getting them made up from stainless braided high temp hose with fittings on the end Will be using 1/2" for oil return, what size should i use for the oil feed to the turbo? I know it's def smaller than 1/2"
Thanks in advance

Sooo moving swiftly on...........
the oil return goes to the sump, you have to either remove your sump and modify, or use another sump and modify that, tho will be tricky without turbo all hanging in place to see exactly where the return has to go.
By modifying sump, I mean you will have to cut a hole and weld a pipe to the sump leaving enough space between that and the oil return off the turbo so you can insert a small section of hose suitable for oil to join them.
The oil feed is taken off the bottom M18 1.5 take of below the oil filter, the top one can be used to run an oil pressure gauge as this is what i did. As uitable fitting is available from LMA from http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/products/ProductDetail.asp?cls=MSPORT&pcode=LMA008

afaik the bottom one is post filter...you get nice filtered oil to the turbo. The top on is pre filter, so so risk chucking all the carp the filter removes, into the turbo.....not good and potentially fatal.
I may be wrong though

hmmm that may explain why ive had so many turbos go? even though my oil gets done every 1000miles because i get it free

Thanks for the advice with the oil lines Aaron!
Got the exhaust flange hole drilled out today and picked up some 90 degree elbows, bored out a bit of steel on the lathe to join the 2 elbows, I'm off for a shower now but then i'll take some pics of what i've got so far so y'all can see
thanks again for all your ongoing help and support!
