i bought the scavenge pump from a local speed shop, mounted it low at the bottom of the a/c compressor? it lays back on it.

I have a small startup video but I'm not gonna post it. I'm wearing a car quest sleeve less shirt and the crickets around here go crazy at this time...sounds like the jungle I'll get another one tomorrow, and pics of the pump mounted. My JB weld on the oil feed fitting melted

Other than that, all I need is a filter for the turbo and some not-so-ghetto plug wires and i'll be happy for now
didn't you use a tap and drill for the for the feed elbow?I must of missed something

I drilled it out about 1/16" too much, so when I tapped it the threads were barely there, so as a quick fix I just JB welded the fitting in there...didn't occur that JBW would melt Now the search begins again for a replacement elbow.

Edit - Found a new one locally, should be patched up tomorrow ready to terrorize

I went and bought a new cover, redrilled and tapped it RIGHT this time I do appreciate the offering though. Got that all patched up, put a ricer air filter on the turbo...took it for a spin, saw light smoke behind me so I pulled over and found 3 leaks. One at the inlet of the turbo (few drops), one at the exit of the scavenger pump, and one from the oil drain into the oil cap. Oh well, fix one problem, another few pop up. Gotta buy a boost gauge tonight too.

Do I need a restrictor? I'm running -4an to the turbo...

This is where I put my scavenger pump. Too much crap behind the radiator so I had to put it up above the air dam. Don't mind the ghetto ground




Oil return straight into the cap. I'm probably going to run it into the valvecover instead, gotta find a new cap and filler neck.




MiaSS, this is the fitting that you drill out and tap. It is directly above your oil filter, remove it and use a drill to drill out to whatever feed fitting size you use.



Clearance on the driver's side is lower but I can tweak it to get another half inch or so

Your Welcome Matt.. It sounded good and we need to get it over to the shop to get all that wiring mess a lil clean up.Im sure im going to go over everything to make sure we got everything .. Sorry it took me so long to get over to your place to get that wiring stuff done, glad it runs ..



Maybe we can start the Sierra Turbo Kit soon, if I ever get the funds together to start it ..
