I have read alot about turbo engines and common problems and one thing that I have seen alot oil systems not producing a steady supply of oil on turbo engines(N/A as well I'm sure) that are making alot more power than what they were designed to.
And or lack oil in the high RPM range resulting in spinning rod bearings. I already have an oil cooler and the relocated oil filter(I know relocation doesn't help). Is there anything else I can do to imrove the factory oil system? (1)would a larger capacity oil pan help? (2)is there a larger volume oil pump for our cars? (3)can I use a DRY sump oil system?, are there any available I know I probably am not exeding the limit of my factory system yet, but I am trying to plan ahead and have the safest most efficient engine I can have- So any help would be appreciated -------------------- If anyone is missing NASCAR and it's not on Speed Channel, take a fistful of Skittles, throw them in the toilet and hit the flush handle.

Typically it's not a problem with our engines, but there probably is a higher capacity oil pump out there... you can also shim the stock pump to put out more pressure...
1. Not really 2. Maybe 3. Yeah but be ready to pay $$$ and it'll be all custom -Doc -------------------- -Dr Tweak, 6GC's resident engine swap wiring expert extraordinaire Click here to see my swaps drtweak@phoenixtuning.com |
