What about restricting the flow of oil a pinch? I know I've seen that done in the past.

I have a scavenge pump, but I mounted too high...even though it can draw up, it reduces the flow...I lowered it so its lower than the turbo now.
Dropping it in at our local ODR race today...

Does having a dry sump fix this problem completely or lower the chances of it happening?
For some reason I was comparing your times to phil's mph in the 1/8. Hopefully you can get up there too!

Let the turbo drain to a small tank (like a overflow bottle with a breather) Then have your scavenge pump suck oil from there. You will not have any more problems with oil backing up into the drain line.

thats what I want to do, but it would hang so low I'm afraid. it still did it yesterday, though it took longer and not as severe. so it was an incremental improvement. I think I'm going to try a turbowerx exa pump vs the mocal. it has 50-100% more flow. the mocal is listed as 1-2 gal/min and the exa as 3 gal/min.

Did you fix the oil issue then or is it just band-aided right now? Turbowerx sounds like best solution...have you thought about going to dry sump at all or do you see it unnecessary at this point?

Yes, I think this is the one to get. You can even run it dry and it won't hurt it.
