eke_zetec_RWD Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Separate circuits. All oil will pass through cooler at full pressure then into filter. While only a tee'd off small amount goes through turbo then to sump. More dets On set up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 lack of setup really, lm7 5.3 v8,big cat(believe cat branded garret turbo),rx7 oil cooler. currently just single filter but will have to swap to a twin filter rig with the adapter?. also in the mix synapse 50mm gate, samson 50mm bov. unsure of my oil flow requirements for the turbo yet will have to go down the cat dealer/shop and poke some questions around, poss need high volume oil pump to i assume?

flyingbrick Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 yeah you are lucky jase as the chev v8s have like every aftermarket part imaginable. get a sandwich block to feed cooler or get a remote filter adaptor and run as many remote filters and coolers as you want.

fryup Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 You wont get bugger all turbo info from goughs (cat dealer) best to go to garrett direct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil_si Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Run unrestricted oil from remote filter or from the main oil gallery to feed the turbo, From turbo drain straight back to sump, drain must always be downwards, Oil cooler is a different circuit, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
