Robm: Thanks for confirming that with me, i will go with that oil feed line. Also what your saying about boost compared to compression is very true. I think 10 pounds can be done and...
Ahmet: Yes it is intercooled. I am Tig welding a front mount that goes in the front under spoiler, not the stock location.
Also when you say the turbo engine mount, its different than the N/A? How is that, and how does using that allow you to use the oil lines, i mean lines are lines right, why would you need a different engine mount. And no im not using the same exhaust manifolds and crossover pipe and down pipe, its all custom from the N/A Top part of the header, from the 2 flanges down and under the oil pan into the turbo and then all the way out the back. Do you think that a 2.5" full mandrel home welded exhaust all the way from the turbo out with just one normal thrush muffler on the back will be too loud? Before this i had the N/A with 2 mufflers and a high flow cat with 2.5" And was loud as all hell, thanks for your guys time....

Get decent quality "Aeroquip hoses" for the feed and return, plain hose won't hold up very well.
BTW don't you think it would be easier to install a pipe thread "T" at the sender rather then drilling into the balance shaft cover? Your going to have to take the cover off to drill it, or risk getting metal filings in the housing. Then you have to reseal the housing which is a pita.
