    Front/bottom mount turbo info.

    See a lot of drag cars that have the turbos mounted out front and some down really low as well. I'm assuming they use a pump for the return side of the turbo because if not the oil would stack up and leak threw the seals. Anyone have any links or info?

    I'm going to be exploring that (and several other ideas) myself this winter.

    Relentless returns 2016 if all goes to plan.

    With going rwd if I could have as little pan as possible it would definitly help. Also I do plan on doing track events someday. Making the pan and fabricating the drive system I'm ok with but I need to know where and the best way to feed the 2.4 oil from the new pump.
