For some reason I thought doing a YBlock setup would feed one Turbo more oil then the other, I have no experience with twin turbos. So good to know thanks

id assume with the Y they get same pressure at the merge so it should be even

When the oil passes through the turbo and drains back its more of a frothy fluid compared to the solid fluid u put in.

Ironically I just tried this & it didn't work. I just built a twin turbo setup on my camaro. It was single turbo before. I was lazy & didn't want to pull the pan so i tried to use my existing drain with a Y. Got oil blow by in my turbos.

So I drilled above the oil drain with grease and all precautions for the 2nd drain. I also washed it out with motor oil, looked clean. Runs like a champ now.
