Default NEED an Oil pump for Turbo set-up?

Do i need an oil pump to get oil from my pan to a turbo charger- and what else do i need- i am thinking of getting a welder and making my own custom STS set-up-

Parts so far-
Garret 60-1 turbo
Hallman MBC
50mm wastegate
HKS SSQV BOV
2.5" intercooler piping
Intercooler w/ 2.5" inlets
New custom bonnet
Bigger TB
Walbro LS1 intank fuel pump with hot wire kit -

Can you guys come up with anything else i will need for this as far as parts go?


This will be over the summer and if not i will only be gathering all the parts over the summer and fabing it up next winter- only going to run maybe 8 or 9 psi with a 75shot on top- should get me to around 330whp

And i will either keep my wet-kit or turn it into an intercooler spray bar

Not to get oil to the turbo, but if its going to be a rearmount setup like the sts you will need the pump to return the oil back to the front

hmm..not completly understanding what your asking. if the turbo is mounted level or lower with the pan you will need a pump...meth and nitrous have different effects depending on what your doing. more detail would be helpful

im looking more for horsepower with the nitrous vs. meth, and what ever is safer which i assume is meth-

The turbo will be level or lower than the pan for sure so i will need a pump like the STS pump- correct
