Oil return for low mounted turbo??? Heres the idea(the turbo will actually sit lower than that and to the side of the car more.)
however the drain will end up lower than the oil pan... what are my options as far as drain back for the return line?

I daily drive my truck with no problems. 10k miles so far.
my pump is the Shurflo 8000-643-210
Pump is good for consistant 180* temps, can run dry, and is meant for constant running.
I have an oil cooler before my pump so it only see's ~120*
Only abou 100$ for one. Maybe cheaper.
The main purpose of this pump was to circulate Transmission fluid to and fromthe coolers in Large RV Motorhomes.

That sounds like a great idea. I wonder if I have enough room up front to fit all of this stuff haha. Im working on EXTREMELY tight spaces and barely have enough room for everything as it is.Where can I pick one of these up? Where do you have it draining back into?

the shurflo are decent at best we have nothing but problems with it. I wouldnt waste my time with one this is what you should use hands down.http://www.rbracing-rsr.com/oilsystems.htm (its a great write up on why other pumps fail) they are FAR better. I would also put some sort of small reservior with a breather beneath your turbo so you dont have the possibility of the oil backing up in the turbo say your pump fails.. here is a pic of our setup with a gt4276 on my friends 03 cobra.
