simon da silva Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Hey people. Im thinking about a single turbo build, and i was concidering how to feed the oil to the turbo. Is it possible To run the oil to the turbo via a sandwich plate, and then use the sandwich plate to take the return back again. Like having an Oil cooler installed, this will just be an Oil heater instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon da silva Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 Thinking like sanwich plate like this to feed both oilcooler and turbo http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNIVERSAL-OIL-SENDER-FILTER-SANDWICH-PLATE-COOLER-ADAPTER-KIT-TURBO-BL-/271413516816?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3A350Z&hash=item3f31819a10&vxp=mtr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chubby Ninja Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 There's a guy on here doing a single turbo build and he's made a custom reservoir for oil and a scavenge pump. That way if the turbo blows it doesn't damage the engine. As to your question, I think the sandwich plate would work bu people with v2 superchargers drill and tap the sump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 You will need to use a presurised feed to the turbo, which could be taken from a sandwich plate, but you will probably need to restrict the flow if it a BB turbo, the return will have to be non presurised IE gravity if your using a turbo position thats higher than the sump, if not then you will likely have to adopt the separate tank with a low pressure scavenge pump back to the sump.

Correct. Just out of curiosity why do you need to restrict the oil if it's a bb turbo? Edited July 23, 2014 by The Chubby Ninja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon da silva Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 its a Greddy TD06 turbo, but im guessing that i would take the feed from the sandwich plate ( pressurised ) and then make the oil return in the sumppan. the turbo is top mounted so gravity will be my friend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chubby Ninja Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Yeah. The td06 is a decent size. What kind of power are you expecting? Where are you mounting it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon da silva Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 its going to be similair to the Turbonetics kit, so its placed around the airfilter box possition. Just gonna run it around 400whp, since the block isent build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. Just out of curiosity why do you need to restrict the oil if it's a bb turbo? If you over pressure and over volume ball bearing races in turbos it will inhibit spool up and keep the overall speed down due to the drag effect of the oil.

I love learning new stuff like this. Cheers mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gonna run it around 400whp, since the block isent build I would like to see how the exhaust manifolds are made to keep both sides equal length. Any idea?
