Default I need a sensor or gauge to let me know my turbo is getting oil??
Finishing up my rear mount, and just wondering what I should do so I can make sure that oil is getting to the turbo, any suggestion?? Thanks

Try using a pressure sensor/gauge teed into oil line.

I'd use an electric oil psi gauge tee'd in by the turbo, and put the gauge inside. You could also just get one of those low oil psi warning lights if you don't want a gauge.
