Now I've done some turbo conversions in the past. You will notice missing from the kit is the oil feed return to the sump.

The hardest part is the return. The turbo spins at very high speeds and needs a good clean oil supply flowing through the bearings which support the shaft. The outgoing oil needs to be returned to the sump. This means to do it properly the sump has to be removed and a pipe bolted or welded on. Then a quality hydraulic type hose made and fitted. You don't want this coming off or wearing through!

This is not a simple bolt on conversion like a supercharger.
