Do a search, there are quite a few threads on it. Mocal/Tilton/GearStar. The pump will set you back about $200-$250 roughly, then you need fittings for it and such. Set aside a couple hundred dollars and a few bricks that you can smash with your head trying to get it to work right. haha (I'm just struggling with my set-up)

IMO dont go with the Tilton/Mocal units. Theyre a diaphram design. Get something with spur gears like the enginegears unit based on the Reverso GP-301. Or just get the reverso, i think theyre the same pump. Star Marine sells them but just recently jacked the price up $40+ so now they are $195+shipping

thanks,
i did try search , but it didn't work, after 5 times trying, i posted.
i think i would need a pump with metal gears ? as my turbo is running VERY hot at about 28psi, so i guess the oil will be quite hot too

I've been using this set up for two years now, took the motor apart for inspection and its still good as new. I run about 6-7 volt to the pump and its quiet and does the job great

I'm not sure on controlling the pump, i just run mine on the 12 volts i guess. How does that controller work 2002ws-6? Do you have to turn up the speed or does it do it itself based off something?

You can run the pump full speed but I think it will shorten its life a lot. The controller pulses 12v to the motor but if the pulse is 50% duty cycle then the motor thinks its getting 6 volts 75% and 9volts and so on. The gear pump is rated at 3gpm and I think a turbo uses a .5gpm. I just put mine in a little black box from radio shack and mounted the potentiometer on the out side. Adjusting the speed with the turn of a ****.

Oh yeah forgot to mention I have a hobbs type switch that wehn I'm boosting the controller is bypassed and the motor get a full 12v. So the Motor is only conrolled while not under boost.
