Any opinions on oiling 2 turbos for this IrocZ? I understand i can T off the oil pressure sender but cant I run separate systems with a scavenge pump or would i only need a scanvenge pump for a rear mount turbo? The turbos are up top on the engine and i was relying on gravity to return the oil as long as their faced down. Pretty much need to know if the turbos will suck their own oil or do they need added pressure. ThankS

they will have plenty of pressure if you tap into the proper source… you will need to put a T-series restrictor in as well, unless you are going GT then you will need that specific restrictor.
