Hey guys! currently building a rear mount turbo set up for the freshly built ecotec! Just need help on the oil system! I plan on having a 2L oil tank in the boot ( big enough?) and running the oillines though the gromet in the boot and have the electric pump just under the car. My question is can i use an oil tank in the boot like this? Google Image Result for http://i00.i.aliimg.com/photo/v0/519192610/Oil_Tank_2L.jpg does it need to breath ?

Given the temps in a turbo, even a rear mounted one, I would imagine you'd need some sort of cooling setup for the oil?

What size turbo do you plan on running with the rear mount setup?

I have a holset turbo, used many times on petrol cars , it's rebuilt which is good! I purchased 2.5" exhaust piping that I will use to custom make the whole set up, only costing me $23 per 1m of mild steel! Anyway I don't want to reveal to much ! I accept any critsisum anyone has! But didn't anyone think that maybe cops should worry about Honda S2ks??? SIDI sv6? Or other high powered legal cars!? I have been quoted 190rwkw which isn't neck breaking...

That's still about 255 kw at the fly.... Thats vx clubby power :) sounds interesting mate, good look with it. And I'd probably go a 3" if it's single dump back exhaust. And yeah intercooler? Where you gonna hide it? Lol
