3sge to 3sgte, turbo upgrade Options

[celicaupto550hp]

I'm converting my 3sge celica to a 3sge with a gt30 turbo and the oil and water lines for this are becoming a problem where they are now all the other mods required are done but where are the best places to tap my oil feed/return and water feed/return lines to?

I can make a t section or a way of tapping onto the radiator hosing for inlet and outlets but would that be enough to?
And for the oil would it just be easier to run the oil feed line from the oil cooler and the return back into the sump tapped in with a 6,8 whatever sized an fitting is on the braided lines?

IIRC the oil pan section is almost identical to the 3rd gen 3sgte minus the oil feed and return. Can you buy the 3sgte oil return fitting and see if it bolts up? I know KORacing has a AN fitting for the drain for the 3rd gen. For the feed you can simply get it from the head where the oil pressure sensor is.


For water lines you can do what 5sfte guys do and use the lines leading to the throttle body. The lines going to the throttle body is used to keep it warm in the winter.
